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.

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.

Who else could have so much go so wrong and still become famous for the one big thing he did by mistake: discover America...if he did that. Anyway, he had a lot of adventure (or misadventure), and Jean Fritz tells about it and ...
