Adventures in Odyssey American History Compilation

Focus on the Family

I grew up listening to these adventure stories from American history and it helped make history come alive and be more relatable. It is important to note that these programs are made by a Christian organization and their faith values are apparent in the programs. I think if that is made known on the item description, Christian families will be excited to purchase it, and those who don't share that value can avoid purchase. Since many home school families are starting to learn about and love Yoto, and there is currently almost no Christian content, I think this will help meet a need and a gap in the Yoto offerings.
