Mom's Notes: I have never read John Bunyan's original story, though I've heard of it over and over throughout my life. Most recently we have been reading about how Louisa May Alcott and her sisters would act out Christian's journey, as do their literary counterparts in Little Women. So we picked this up! The book was beautifully illustrated and the story gently told. I'd like to read the original for myself because I think some things are lost in the translation to a children's book. It also seemed quite repetitive, I'm not sure we needed to read Christiana's tale. Anyway, it was an insightful Sunday afternoon read for a few months. The most memorable and meaningful part for me is Christian laying down his burden at the Cross. The names of the characters also give us much to ponder.
