Last year my son used the 12th grade LifePacs history for that. Five books covers government and the other five, economics. He seemed to like them. He read Whatever Happened to Penny Candy by Richard Maybury and one other Maybury book but the title escapes me at the moment though.

Here is a list of books sometimes used for a non-textbook approach:

For Economics:
Whatever Happened to Penny Candy, by Richard Maybury, 1993
Biblical Economics in Comics, by Vic Lockman, 1985
Economics in One Lesson, by Henry Hazlitt, 1979
Honest Money, by Gary North, 1986
A Banker's Confession, by Gary Sanseri, 1991

For Government and Law:
Whatever Happened to Justice?, by Richard Maybury, 1993
The Law, by Frederic Bastiat, 1850 (translation from the French)
Ancient Rome: How It Affects You Today, by Richard Maybury, 1995
The Christian and Civil Government, by Pastor John Weaver, 1991
Law & Liberty, by Rousas J. Rushdooney, 1984
A Defense of Liberty against Tyrants, by Junius Brutus, (1689 translation from Latin, Vindicae Contra Tyrannos, 1579)
Lex Rex, by Samuel Rutherford, 1982 (originally published 1644)
