Pam's Traveling Coat Collection - Book II

I’ve been loaded into suitcases and backpacks and tossed into airplane cargo holds for long rides around the world. I’ve survived windstorms and snowstorms, sandstorms and ocean waves. I know about subways and railways and all ways of travel from place to place. I have seen things from rickshaws, riverboats, canal boats, the back of a donkey and a camel. I’ve petted an elephant and a cheetah and lived to tell the tale.

Stairways into what seemed like the very clouds have been part of almost every adventure!

There are so many places to go. So many places to see. I encourage you to go explore. It’s a big, big world and it’s waiting for you.

Ochala and The Pilgrims

As the Pilgrims anchor at Plymouth, ten-year-old Ochala becomes the first Native American to witness these intriguing newcomers. His discovery prompts him to rush back to his village and alert his family and the respected sachem Massasoit. Intrigued, the sachem sends Ochala and his father to discreetly observe the Pilgrims from the forest’s safety, seeking to understand these strangers.

Ochala and the Pilgrims places young Ochala at the forefront of key historical events that unfolded between the Pilgrims and his tribe. The story takes a significant turn when Ochala’s actions profoundly impact his life and those around him, following the disappearance of a Pilgrim girl in the woods — an event inspired by true history.

The book vividly portrays the Wampanoag way of life, from their skilled woodcraft and agricultural practices to hunting methods, tribal customs, and even their language. It offers insights into how the Wampanoags lived in harmony with nature, in stark contrast to the Pilgrims’ initial attempts to settle in Plymouth. The first Thanksgiving is featured near the end of the book.

Featuring historical figures such as Massasoit, Squanto, Samoset, and William Bradford, Ochala and the Pilgrims delves into themes of friendship, jealousy, decision-making, and patience.

Authored by Michael Tougias, an esteemed expert on this historical era, this meticulously researched tale provides young readers with a unique, enlightening perspective on the Pilgrims’ arrival at Plymouth. Tougias has been recognized for his balanced portrayal of both Native American and Pilgrim cultures, earning accolades from Native American groups and the Mayflower Society.

About Mr. Higgins:

In 2014, the authors David Preece and Jim Webber adopted a black Scottish terrier who was a shy, nervous, and somewhat suspicious mid-life rescue dog. “Mr. Higgins” (the fitting name he came to us with) gradually emerged from his shell and enjoyed his new life in his forever home. Still, on guard with most strangers, Mr. Higgins learned to return love while protecting his home and keeping his dads to their daily routines. Not a fan of pats on the head, “Higgins” prefers a light touch on his sides and burrowing into a safe space. He loves walks, other dogs, treats, and – as a born outfielder – plays fetch.
