The Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan Every Child Can Read

A man in rags reads a book, trembles beneath a burden, and cries, “What shall I do?” When he warns his family that their city is doomed, they decide he has lost his wits.

In John Bunyan’s allegory, Christian lives in the City of Destruction until fear and hope send him running toward a distant light and a narrow gate. His wife and children call him back; neighbors Obstinate and Pliable pursue him, each with a different idea of what a sensible person should do. Guided by Evangelist, Christian must leave familiar comforts behind and find the way to a place that cannot perish. But will his companions keep pace when the road begins to test them?
