You Wouldn't Want to Sail on the Mayflower! was a wonderful example of an informational text that engages young readers. This book has great illustrations in a cartoon form that make it entertaining to read. In addition to this the information that was presented was accurate and taken more seriously. My only complaint with this book is that the font is a bit small and there is a lot of text on the page. It may have benefited from being a few pages longer in order to make it easier to digest what is on the page.… (más)

Being on that ship would be a nightmare because,I wouldn't get enough food I probably would be sick and I probably would die.I don't want a dead family just because of a religion, or freedom. I would like an alive,healthy family with a good job and food. At the same time I would want to go because I want to experience building,starting a fire with sticks ,hunt,make clothes of my design,and make up my own recipes. I would want to know how people started life on earth and what they did to survive. It would be a life experience that I would never forget.… (más)
