It's the dawn of an important new day in America. Young listeners, grab the reins and join Rush Revere, Liberty the horse, and the time-traveling crew on an exciting trip to the past to see our nation's most iconic symbols up close! "Rush Revere here, along with my chatty horse, Liberty! Wait a minute ... Liberty? Where did he go?" "Reporting for duty, Captain Revere!" "Liberty, where did you get that spinach smoothie?" *Slurp* Well, he certainly didn't get it from 1787 - that's where we're rushing off to next with our enthusiastic young friends (but not before causing a major security incident at the National Archives in Washington, DC!). A funny case of mistaken identity and a wild chase through Philadelphia leads us to the famously introverted father of our Constitution, James Madison, and the heated debates over the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Fast-forward a few years, and we'll help his brave wife, Dolley, risk her life to save an important portrait from the White House as the British set Washington afire! What greater symbol of our freedoms than the Star-Spangled Banner, sewn by Betsy Ross? Perhaps Francis Scott Key can explain what inspired him to write our national anthem. But watch out for the bombs bursting in air, because when we reach 1814, we'll be front and center at a major battle to defend our liberty!
