Daughters of the Faith Series - Almost Home: A Story Based on the Life of the Mayflower's Young Mary Chilton
ISBN: 9780802436375Twelve-year-old Mary Chilton was one of 102 passengers who stepped on board the Mayflower in the fall of 1620 for their long-awaited journey to the New World. This odd collection of "saints" and "strangers" sailed bravely together into the unknown.
All Mary can think about is finally finding a home-a place to belong. As she experiences the adventure and hardship of the ocean voyage, the struggle of starting the new Plymouth colony, and the happiness of the first harvest festival, she learns that home has a bigger meaning than she thought.
