Rendition Toward Books Little Pilgrim's Progress: From John Bunyan's Classic
Fifty-five years ago, Helen L. Taylor took John Bunyan's Pilgrim'sProgress and simplified the vocabulary and concepts for young readers, while
keeping the storyline intact. The result was a classic in itself, which has now
sold over 600,000 copies. It's both a simple adventure story and a profound allegory
of the Christian journey through life, a delightful read with a message kids ages
6 to 12 can understand and remember. A new look and fresh illustrations for today's
children enlivens the journey to the Celestial City.

loved this when I was younger...it took me a while before I saw what it really meantAn excellent adaptation of Pilgrim's Progress for the little folks. Short chapters and excellent for reading aloud to the kids. Highly recommended.
Little Pilgrim is on his way to the Celestial City. He barely escapes from the Slough of Despond. He has to pass by two lions. He's kept captive by a cruel giant. (It had been one of my favorite parts) When they pass through a city, they are imprisoned and his friend Faithful is martyred and angels carry him to Celestial City. Little Pilgrim continues on his journey.This was a favorite read as a child. I loved the action and danger. My favorite part came when he arrived at Celestial City and is
A babysitter read this with me at night when I was about 12, and I have been looking for a copy ever since. This simple religous allegory is a story of overcoming life's obstacles through faith, perseverance, and fellowship. Great for anyone with a belief in good, even if not quite in God.
It can be hard to change the words in a book, without changing the quality of the text.This is probably the best example of that job done well.Props, Helen.
This was an excellent retelling of the classic story of Christian and his companions on their journey to the Celestial City. Christina's story is included as well. I read this with my 9 and 7 year old boys in preparation for next reading the original language of Bunyan. They always begged for more and are excited to read it again!
Excellent way to make Pilgrim's Progress accessible to the young or to those who are needing the milk of the gospel and not the heaviest meatiest parts. It still has deep doctrine, but it's 'milked down' shall we say. Easier to grasp, I suppose.
