Are you ready to hop aboard a time machine and travel through 250 years of American adventures?
In 1776, a brand-new nation was born against all odds. Almost nobody expected it to survive. It did.
This audiobook brings history to life through the true stories that shaped America. Young listeners will sneak through the night with the Sons of Liberty, shiver beside Washington’s army at Valley Forge, follow Harriet Tubman to freedom, explore with Lewis, Clark, and Sacagawea, and ride all the way to the Moon.
They'll discover:
- Why the Boston Tea Party became a million-dollar soggy mess
- How Henry “Box” Brown mailed himself to freedom
- Why Paul Revere never shouted “The British are coming!”
- How Thomas Edison tested thousands of materials before creating a successful light bulb
- How Katherine Johnson and other “human computers” helped send astronauts to the Moon
- Why the Wright brothers’ first flight changed the world
- And much more!
Written for listeners ages 8–12 and perfect for family listening, each chapter is a short adventure designed to entertain, inspire, and spark curiosity.
