Stories of the Pilgrims

By: Margaret B. Pumphrey

Narrated by: Marguerite Gavin

This delightful and interesting account of the Pilgrims is written especially for children. It explores the religious oppression of the Pilgrims in England, their escape to Holland and eventual crossing to America on the Mayflower, and their early days in New England. Based on historical fact, the stories are filled with details of everyday life and vivid characterizations of Pilgrim families as they struggle to maintain their faith in the New World. The Brewster children and other Pilgrim boys and girls are the center of interest. This is a wonderful book to listen to in the weeks before Thanksgiving.

Great story

My ten year old daughter liked everything about this book. She was so sad when it ended. it didn't favor one side or the other. It was a nice mix of stories of indians and pilgrims
