Two Bad Pilgrims

(4) K-3 Illustrated by John Manders. Colored by Vince Dorse. Lasky's story focuses on the Billington brothers (who did exist, although the historical record is sketchy), two boys full of mischief who traveled on the Mayflower. While the cartoon-panel format and humor can be hard to follow, they do demonstrate the book's lesson: not all those who came to America with the Pilgrims were virtuous, pious, or even well behaved.
