Irene Bedard, the voice of Disney's Pocahontas, narrates
this unprecedented American history series created especially for
young children. This multi-volume 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 up-beat music add to the excitement
of these programs. Copyright 1996.
