Follow the Drinking Gourd

Learn about the big dipper and why it was so important to the slaves trying to escape to the north. In this cartoon formatted presentation, Peg Leg Joe leads slaves along the underground railroad to the north and freedom using celestial navigation. This presentation is excellent for young children ages 4 to 12. The music is also excellent.
