History comes alive in this excellent Emmy and Humanitas Award-nominated 40-episode, animated series about the experiences of two young teens during the American Revolution. Far more than a simple chronicle of the battles and major events of the American Revolution, Liberty’s Kids tells the story of the cultural, scientific, political, and social forces that helped shape America’s fight for independence from the perspective of two young teens from very different backgrounds. Sarah is a young English woman living in America who maintains a strong sense of loyalty to England and James is a printer’s apprentice living the American dream, but feeling the constraints of British oppression. Working together on Benjamin Franklin’s newspaper the "Pennsylvania Gazette," Sarah and James often find their interpretations of current events differ markedly and the pair constantly grapples with tough issues like slavery, self-governance, fair representation, and the role of women in battle and politics. The juxtaposition of the two teens’ opposing viewpoints sparks spirited arguments in the series and inspires a fuller understanding of the complexity of the events and issues of the American Revolution for both Franklin’s newspaper audiences and modern viewers. Another strength of the series is that legendary historical figures like Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, John Adams, and Abigail Adams come across as real, believable people engaged in a genuine struggle to determine right from wrong and to act in the best interest of their families, community, and country. An amazing cast of voice talent includes Walter Cronkite as Ben Franklin, Dustin Hoffman as Benedict Arnold, Annette Bening as Abigail Adams, Billy Crystal as John Adams, Michael Douglas as Patrick Henry, as well as General Norman Schwarzkopf, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Ben Stiller, Whoopi Goldberg, and many others. Bonus features include an interesting look back at the series with creator Kevin O’Donnell and others including executive producers Andy Heyward and Mike Maliani, story editors Doug McIntyre and Jay Abramowitz, and casting director Marsha Goodman. Also included are Benjamin Franklin’s Newsbytes, Continental Cartoons, Now and Then, Mystery Guest Game, original pencil tests, a 40-page booklet with a historical timeline, and a pullout poster with a United States map. Liberty’s Kids is highly recommended as great entertainment and important educational programming for ages 7 and older. --Tami Horiuchi

- Every Child's Education Should Include "Liberty Kids"It's even beter than I'd expected. I was a little concerned in might be too young for my boys. We're a family of history buffs. My boys have been exposed to a lot of information on the American Revolution, from the History Channel to participating in Williamsburg reenactments. Not only are they enjoying the series but I am as well. Liberty Kids does a fantastic job of presenting the war from differing perspectives. It does a great job of showing the role of slavery during the time of the revolution. ... Read More

- If only there were more cartoons like this one.We homeschool our children and make sure to give each child individualized attention. During our "one-on-one time" we like to have the other children watch this series while putting puzzles together, coloring, etc. They get to learn without even trying. These DVD's are TV you can feel good about letting your children watch.

- Liberty's Kids reviewI'm so glad that these finally came out at an affordable price! The show is fairly accurate historically and my sons 7 & 9 love watching them. I homeschool both of them. These dvd's cement the events in the kids' minds much better than a text book. I'm so glad I got them.

- Bringing History alive for Children from 4 to 102This series is fairly accurate from a historical perspective. But most importantly, it brings history alive for my 6 and 4 year old sons. They have grown to feel as if they know the characters personally and now constantly ask questions about U.S. History.
