ONE LITTLE, TWO LITTLE, THREE LITTLE PILGRIMS

Title: One Little, Two Little, Three Little Pilgrims
Author: B.G. Hennessy
Illustrator: Lynne Cravath
Genre: historical fiction
Summary: This story gives a general picture of Pilgrim and Wampanoag life. It depicts how the Pilgrims met the Wampanoag and all the work they went through to get to their final feast. This is also a counting book.
Comments: Children will really enjoy reading this book. We were able to read the story together, and make a finger-play using what we knew from the story. The children were also able to make up their own version of the story, with a little background knowledge of the Pilgrim's and Wampanoag struggles to survive no food and the long winter.
Grade level: Preschool-1st grade.
