Listen My Children (MP3 Audio) – Paul Revere, famous American revolution patriot, is most remembered today for his night-time ride sounding the alert before the battles of Lexington and Concord. His famous “Midnight ride” took place on the night of April 18, 1775 – exactly 235 years ago this Sunday. William Dawes and Revere were instructed by Dr. Joseph Warren to ride from Boston to Lexington to warn John Hancock and Samuel Adams of the movements of the British Army. Today’s resources, courtesy of our sister site HomeschoolRadioShows.com, celebrate both the man and the events of that night. Listen My Children is a great half hour audio story about Revere’s life and influence, including the events of that fateful night, as originally dramatized on the radio program “Cavalcade of America”, in December, 1952.
We've also included our PDF “Listening & Discussion Guide” that accompanies the audio program. Also, we've got a neat audio reading of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s classic poem, “Paul Revere’s Ride” as performed by the great actor, Frederic March. This is an excellent dramatic reading of this classic American poem and runs about 10 minutes. Enjoy!
