From Native American civilizations to the sweeping social reforms of Civil Rights, Hip-Hop U.S. History is the new way to learn. NYCs most talented underground rappers lend their vocal skills to characters like Harriet Tubman, Nat Turner, and John C. Calhoun (on Ghosts of the Civil War); and J. P. Morgan, Andrew Carnegie, and John D. Rockefeller (on Big Ballin (in the Gilded Age)). With songs like Let Freedom Ring, featuring Martin Luther King Jr's historic speech, I have a dream, Flocabulary brings history to life. Students, young and old, will listen, engage, and see the past in a whole new light.

Innovative Hip-Hop uses original raps to introduce U.S. history. The songs are performed, along with high-quality original music, on an accompanying CD, but the book can stand alone. In chapters that move from Columbus' voyage to America through the civil rights movement, the authors expand on each rap's lyrics with insights, quotes, and solid facts. Appendixes include a guide to cultural references and the full text of the Declaration of Independence. Creative and dedicated to serious instruction, this title in the author's Flocabulary series makes history relevant to kids' lives and will be a popular supplement to class work. Gillian Engberg
