The Covered Wagon Trek oleh Marie McKay

It is 1912, and six-year-old Nellie is in for the adventure of a lifetime. Her parents are looking for work, so Nellie and her whole family pack into a crowded covered wagon for a long, exciting journey. Even though she is sad to leave home, Nellie sees things she's never seen before: a car, a train, and she even gets a scary ride across the river on a ferry! Nellie also makes some new friends along the way. Children will love to laugh and learn alongside Nellie as she steps outside the comfort of home and faces the new world around her. Author Marie Conyers McKay based this lively and educational book on the real-life story of her own mother's childhood and travels. McKay spent her career as a librarian, and brings this story to us with the hope that you will enjoy her mother's story. She currently lives near Birmingham, Alabama, and is working on a series of novellas about life in Hong Kong, where she lived for several years.
