About this listen

A brave heart is louder than any noise! Meet Little Ben, a tiny boy with a big wish: to join the marching soldiers! Ben might be too small for a rifle, and his uniform might be too big, but he has the most important job of all he is the Drummer Boy! When Ben and his best friend, General Snoots the dog, travel with the Brave Marchers, they face a very loud and confusing time called the Great Noisy Day in Gettysburg. Can Ben’s small drum cut through the clatter and the chaos? What happens when his heart is thump-thumping with fear? Follow Ben’s journey as he learns that being a hero isn't about being the biggest or the loudest, but about keeping a steady, clear rhythm to guide others and prove that even the smallest people can make the biggest difference. Perfect for listeners who love stories about history, courage, and finding your own brave beat!
