another great by Jim Weiss

I love everything I have listened to by Jim Weiss so far and this is no exception, except that these are true stories and therefore that much more interesting and inspiring. admittedly, I have listened to a few other of Jim's true stories- of history and science, but I think this might be my favorite. I do love American history, though, and tales of courage and this has both. this is mom reviewing, but my teen daughters and tween son also enjoyed this very much right along with me! short stories, great for a road trip or trip across town or even just those with short attention spans. I do not recall there being anything that would make this inappropriate for very young children as well (but I do think on Jim Weiss' website there are age recommendations for each of his recordings??)
