PRODUCT SUMMARY
Irene Bedard, the voice of Disney's Pocahontas, narrates this unprecedented American history series created especially for young children. This multivolume series provides a balanced portrayal of U.S. history, covering standard historical figures and events as well as the perspectives of women, children and other groups whose stories are often overlooked. Each program teaches important aspects of America's history through the use of large, brightly colored graphics and animations, charming live-action portrayals of historic figures and engaging stories told from a child's point of view. Sing-along songs with on-screen lyrics and upbeat music add to the excitement of these programs. Teacher's Guides are included and are available online.
