(More customer reviews)We bought these for my daughter because she enjoyed the show on PBS. I have been using them in my second grade classroom to introduce the AMerican Revolution to my students. I find them to be a great way to do this. They present what can be a very confusing topic in an easy to understand, kid friendly way. I find that the children love the theme song. The show also pauses briefly at particularly exciting parts and shows a "frozen photograph" of the scene with some suspenseful music, before continuing. It's very effective. My students, who claim to be "too big for cartoons" groaned today when I had to stop it because we had to go somewhere and begged "are we going to get to see the end?" Pretty good endorsement!

It's the dead of night in Boston Harbor and our intrepid reporters, Sarah and James, spot colonists disguised as Mohawk Indians sneaking aboard British ships and dumping tons of tea overboard. This act of defiance against the British authority is a defining moment of the American Revolution. It's then on to Lexington and Concord, where citizens calling themselves "Minutemen" take up arms against the powerful, experienced British army of "redcoats." Outnumbered and outgunned, the Minutemen refuse to back down, and soon the evening's silence is shattered by the "shot heard around the world." On the village green in Lexington, the first shot of the Revolutionary War has just been fired!
