Using Little Fido, Abraham Lincoln's beloved dog, the author shares the history of the fight against slavery and the discrimination that still exists today. The information is presented through an engaging story, song and activities which both parents and teachers will love using with their children. This teaching tool relates to all grade levels - use it as a read aloud, a sing along or a performance piece. What started out as a great toe-tapping CD with educational lyrics has blossomed into a unique resource for anyone who works with children. Little Fido offers numerous degrees of enrichment possibilities for different age levels while bringing the history of the American Civil War to life. A must-have for any teacher!
“...Just as in her book Nile, Nile Crocodile, Furlong’s original music delights both the listener and the performer.”
