Rush Revere and The Brave Pilgrims by Rush Limbraugh
Written for the intermediate reader, this is a book that brings history alive. Rush Revere is a history teacher that has an incredible horse that allows him to travel back in time and experience events in history as they are taking place. He gets to meet great historical figures and ask them questions. Some of the students go back with him and see what it was really like to travel on the Mayflower and participate in the first Thanksgiving.
This was a fun read, definitely written for a younger audience, but full of information and experiences that will help young readers understand a little better some of the tragic events, tragedies and sacrifices that the pilgrams experienced as they left their home country to build a new country where they could have religious freedom.
