商品簡介
In 1620, more than one hundred people boarded a small wooden ship and set sail across the Atlantic Ocean. Among them were boys and girls-children who left behind everything they knew to face storms, sickness, hunger, and fear. Their journey was long and uncertain, but their courage helped shape the very beginnings of a new nation. This book brings their incredible story to life through the eyes of young passengers. Readers will discover what it was like to sleep in the cramped belly of the ship, eat the tough and salty food, and pass the time with games and songs while the waves crashed outside. They will follow children as they stepped onto the rocky shore of a strange new world, learned to plant unfamiliar crops, faced the bitter cold of winter, and found friends in unexpected places. More than just a story of survival, this is a story of hope, bravery, and the role kids played in one of the most important journeys in history. Written in a clear and engaging way for young readers, it shows that history is not only made by kings, generals, and leaders-but also by children whose voices and actions mattered then, and still matter now.
