Review
These talented young writers have imagined what it is like to begin a journey, just as the ordinary families on the Mayflower began a journey 400 years ago. Together they take us through centuries of voyages with powerful stories and poems about the fear, adventure, sadness and excitement when taking those first intrepid steps. Through their words, this anthology celebrates connections made since the journey of the Mayflower, considering what that voyage achieved and how it continues to resonate for both countries. Like all travelers, these children look bravely to the future while cherishing their past. - Charles Courtenay 19th Earl of Devon
