Celebrate the 400th Anniversary of the Pilgrims' landing, 1620-2020!
This book offers a fresh and engaging perspective on one of the most pivotal events in America's history. It provides young readers with a deeper understanding of how the Pilgrims' strength, tenacity and faith-filled perseverance not only led them to success in their own pursuit of a better life but also shaped the core values of America. Through delightful narration, vibrant illustrations and excerpts from real historical documents, children can form a deeper appreciation of how the Pilgrims' sacrifices paved the way to a nation built on the spirit of freedom and fearlessness. The use of passages from the journal of William Bradford ignites a love of history early on, demonstrates the value of journal-keeping, and encourages young readers to research their unique family histories and document their findings as they embark on unique adventures of their own.
