The Great Big Wagon That Rang

0/5 ( ratings)

It's 1777, the year after the Liberty Bell was rung to proclaim American independence. A farmer fills his Conestoga wagon with the goods he intends to sell in the markets of Philadelphia's Union Square. Thinking about heading for home many hours later, he is suddenly surrounded by Colonial soldiers. With them is a giant bell. Could it be the bell, he wonders? Warnings arise about British soldiers coming to claim it...but not if the farmer has any say in the matter! Offering young readers the pleasure of a good narrative poem, this vibrantly illustrated picture book also provides an invaluable lesson in Colonial America's spirit and ingenuity.
