(4) K-3 Illustrated by Megan Lloyd. "This is the Mayflower, sturdy and strong. / Her sails skim the skies as she journeys along." Lilting rhymes present an overview of the Pilgrims' voyage and first Thanksgiving celebration. The text doesn't sugarcoat the Pilgrims' struggles, but it does only skim over the Native American perspective. Autumnal illustrations ably support the story's arc.
