A PICTURE BOOK OF GEORGE WASHINGTON

Share this read-along with young readers eager to learn more about our nation's history. A lively fife and drum playing "YankeeDoodle Dandy" welcome the listener to A PICTURE BOOK OF GEORGE WASHINGTON. A narrative tone that is sincere and respectful and a slow, even pace afford the young listener time to absorb facts about the French and Indian War, British colonial taxes, and the Continental Army. Two additional musical interludes frame the chronology of "Important Dates" that offers an overview of Washington's life. T.B. © AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB/MAR 00]
