Episode Title: The Banner Still Waves – A Story of the War of 1812
Learning Tales | Written by Eve Mendez

Step into the smoke-filled skies, cannon-lit nights, and stirring courage of a young American nation. In this unforgettable episode of Learning Tales, history comes alive through the eyes of a child caught in the whirlwind of the War of 1812.

From whispered warnings of British blockades to the fiery fall of the Capitol… from a tattered flag still waving above Fort McHenry to the first echoes of the Star-Spangled Banner… this immersive story explores what it truly means to fight not just for land, but for identity.

Listen as families flee, citizens stand firm, and a nation is reborn beneath the rising flag.
