Follow the Drinking Gourd (Rabbit Ears-a Classic Tale)

Rating:
Summary: Excellent Primary Grades Resource
Review: This is an excellent story of escape from slavery using the Underground Railroad. It explains the song and its symbolism. It also explains the fears of families during slavery -- they might be sold and separated from one another. The accompanying CD or Cassette, narrated by Morgan Freeman with music by Taj Mahal, makes this book/CD unforgettable. Kids will be spellbound.
