"The Pilgrims were terribly good"—but they were much more than that. In this Really Truly story the mothers and fathers and boys and girls emerge as lively people who worked and played in those colorful days when they cross the broad ocean and settled in a strange land.

The account of the first Thanksgiving is a rare treat—"And when it was over, the Indians gave three cheers for the Pilgrims. Never before had they eaten such wonderful food." With this sort of text and the charming pictures the founding of New England becomes a personal tale—one in which children of any age will delight.
