True Adventure

Great story and adventure to relive through the eyes of one who was there

What a great TRUE story...

of family cooperation, perseverance and adventure! I always thought I was the adventuresome type, but the Barry family puts me to shame. Following their trip from England to the U.S. was fun and insightful, plus a fantastic geography lesson for my 5th grader! He loved looking at the atlas to follow their route. It's so nice to find a book that's not only entertaining, but also educational. A great read!!!
