Description
This story of the Mayflower
and the beginning of colonial America presents a great in-depth overview of how
our country came to be. The story starts with the birth and early years of
William Bradford, who later becomes the governor of the new colony in North
America. The text also includes beautiful illustrations and maps, giving a
visual to the reader of exactly where these events take place. The book ends
with an explanation of the Mayflower II, the reproduction of the
original ship, and the legacy that the Mayflower has left behind.
Overall, this story is great for older elementary students learning about early
America as it contains much more information than many other books on the Mayflower
for younger readers. 48 pgs, hc. ~
