There's an old saying: "If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog." A few years ago, Senator Ted Kennedy decided to do just that. Now his beloved Portuguese Water Dog Champion Amigo's Seventh Wave (nicknamed Splash) is the most famous canine on Capitol Hill. Here we follow Senator Kennedy and Splash through a busy day in D.C., from press conferences to meetings with school groups to committee discussions to a floor vote. The result is an exciting, behind-the-scenes look at the life of one of the most energetic figures in American politics -- and, of course, his equally famous owner.
Senator Ted Kennedy and his dog, Splash, invite children along on a typical whirlwind day on Capitol Hill. This witty and very informative behind-the-scenes look features the voice of Senator Kennedy as himself. Narrated by David deVries, with music by Scotty Huff and Robert Reynolds. Directed by Gary McGivney. Audio CD includes four bonus tracks: MY SENATOR AND ME read by Senator Edward M. Kennedy, "How a Bill Becomes a Law," "About Senator Edward M. Kennedy" and "About Splash."
