Enjoyed it. The content gives children insight into the life of Patrick Henry who is presented as a role model of someone who stands up for his convictions. The early biographical information gives kids an opportunity to see him as a person who started out as a child, like them, who grew up to do amazing things and explains why he is of historical importance.
Appealing and educational. Good family entertainment and educational resource. "I like the way Boomer makes explanations throughout the program." Good content that teaches historical lessons to children in a fun fashion. Boomer, the animated eagle host, is very engaging. The lip synch is off and the accents change throughout the presentation but these are things that can be overlooked. Uses simple, two-dimensional animation which is well done, works for this story but isn't glitzy.
American history comes alive as Boomer the Eagle introduces us to the founding fathers at the 1775 Virginia Convention and the action leading to Patrick Henry's famous rallying cry for American independence: "Give me liberty or give me death!"
