DESCRIPTION:
From AudioFile The stories of nine men and women whose lives changed the course of history are told in this beautifully written and produced program for young people. (c) AudioFile, Portland, Maine . The script includes Briticisms that might be alien to American listeners, and the Mozart segment contains language that some parents may find objectionable, but the quality and the educational value of this production outweigh any negatives. Katinka Wolf, herself a fluent Dutch speaker and Anne Frank expert, tells the story of Anne Frank, as well as those of Elizabeth I, Mozart and Florence Nightingale. S.E.S. Trevor Nichols reads the stories of Columbus, Shakespeare, Lord Nelson, Charles Darwin and Abraham Lincoln. Included is a booklet containing liner notes and background information
This audio-original series designed for 8-12 year-olds and written specially for Naxos AudioBooks recounts the energy, imagination, courage and determination that forever changed the world. The featured figures did not seek fame, but rather had a burning desire to do something -- and as a result, achieved a fame that will last as long as history is read and told and heard.Christopher Columbus, Anne Frank, Elizabeth I, William Shakespeare, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Lord Nelson, Charles Darwin, Florence Nightingale & Abraham Lincoln
Kids need heroes I entertain my minivan-bound children with books on tape/CD. The best are the Harry Potter series. There are many other good ones. And this is a good non-fiction title for children.Kids need heroes, and this tape provides my 5 and 7 year old boys with some impressive ones. The heroes come from the worlds of politics, science, literature, religion This tape is one of my 7 year old son's favorites. It has a very positive message for him. He gets ideas of what he could be.Volume 2 (the one I have) tells the stories of some historical figures, emphasizing all the positive and he. Great cds for kids and adults! KarenM Got 3 of the series for when my 7 and 10 year old grandkids would be spending a week with me. We planned trips to the museums and observatory and how nice it was to see a statue carved by the person you had been listening about on the tape, or see an early telescope credited to Galileo after listening about his life. It just rounded off the educational/fun travels perfectly! Recommend the one on Greek legends, historical figures and famous scientists. All of them. (Greek legends was the most fun). And I learned so much myself!
