Product Description:

Marvelously and thoroughly illustrated by Alan Parry, this version of the famous allegory written in 1676 by John Bunyan was prepared to coincide with a TV series called Dangerous Journey, which aired in 1985. This book would make a great bed-time storybook as the rich images, coupled with the carefully selected text of the story, make for an experience to subtly teach a lesson while serving as a springboard for a young child's imagination. 126 pgs. ~ Tom

Category Description for The Pilgrim's Progress:

This well-known book by John Bunyan has been translated and read all over the world. Written over three hundred years ago, it is a spectacular allegory of the Christian life. The main character, formerly known as Graceless but now called Christian, leaves the City of Destruction in order to reach the Celestial City. However, the journey is not easy, and before he gets there he will have to traverse the hill Difficulty, the Valley of the Shadow of Death, and even Vanity Fair. He meets both friends and enemies on his journey, such as Hopeful, Mercy, and the Giant Despair of Doubting Castle. A couple different editions are available, both softcover.

I'm part of a online co-op vitabeata org and they are using this book. I'm very grateful because it's literature based and my child could read this for the summer to get ready for writing during the year. I could then have him read other books through the library like science books.

This is a great introduction of pilgrims progress for kids! After reading this to my girls a few years ago, they now read and enjoy Pilgrims Progress unabridged version on their own and enjoy it (ages 10 and 12).

Excellent!
It’s a journey I believe every young Christian would benefit from reading. Can’t wait to read it with our kiddos this coming fall alongside using Memoria Presses study guide to dig in a little deeper.

Truly great read aloud! We all enjoyed it. My husband said he even liked how they shortened it from the original without losing the effectiveness of the content.

My 6 year old and I read this book early in the school year It is written in the original language but was easy to follow with the pictures My son enjoyed it and begged me to keep reading We now plan to listen to the unabridged version of Pilgrims Progress The only draw back to the book is that the pictures are dark and scary
