Sarah Morton was a real Mayflower passenger. She is mentioned in several journals and histories of the period. This wonderful little book follows her through a typical day in 1627, when she was nine years old: doing chores and spending time with her family.
The photographs were all taken at Plimoth Plantation in Massachusetts, using re-enactors and living history museum settings and furnishings. The photographs come as close as is humanly possible to showing what colonial life was really like. 40 pages, text is 3rd-4th grade reading level, but content and interest level is up through high school.
