When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for people to name all the signers of the Declaration of Independence, one truth is self-evident: most people can't. But it doesn't have to be that way! In YOU CAN MEMORIZE ALL THE SIGNERS OF THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE, you'll find a fun poem that has all fifty-six signers. And it rhymes to boot! Along with the poem, there are fun quizzes as well. So if you want to be able to list off not only folks like John Hancock, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson, but also folks like Button Gwinnett and William Whipple, then this is your chance to declare your independence from not being able to.
