Wind blowing, rain streaming...

I don't think so. 1620 was a pretty awesome time, and you'll experience exactly what they did on that rough, dangerous ocean crossing. Together, we'll ask the pilgrims all our questions, find out how they live, join them at the first Thanksgiving, and much more.

Are you familiar with the genre historical fiction? It combines fictional characters & events with factual people & places and kids seem to love it! Think of the historical value in the American Girl series. Rush Limbaugh has written himself as the fictional Rush Revere, time traveler, with a talking horse named Liberty. Hard covers, pages that look like old parchment, and color illustrations make for a lovely looking book. His first adventure is to the time of the Pilgrims; I reviewed the First Patriots book. Rush Revere travels through magic portals from modern 21st century back in time. The action certainly gets your attention from the beginning. I have to say, the talking horse is pretty hilarious and steals the show. It comes from a conservative patriotic viewpoint, as you would expect from Rush, but those with different political leanings can still enjoy this series. A story about our nation's founders and early leaders should be patriotic afterall! Hc, 240pp. ~ Sara
