wonderful!
My son and I loved this book. It is a touching story of a young couple, with a great take home message at the end. After reading it I was able to tell my son about my great grandfather living in a dugout when he came over from Germany.

Who's That Stepping on Plymouth Rock? 2 reviews Jean Fritz
Putnam Juvenile, 1998
It shows how the rock moved a lot.
+ Interesting and Fun
It is funny how a rock can move from place to place and got broken two times. First, it was on the beach. Then the Pilgrims saw it. When they tried to move it broke. The top of the rock got all the fame. Then they cemented both pieces together and it stands under a special place.
