One thought to “Johnny Tremain (1957)”
It seems it is usually a lot more interesting and fun to learn things when it is presented with a story, especially history! The classic novel by Esther Forbes is great- especially for young boys! This movie was a lot of fun to watch after finishing reading the book. It really helps bring a lot of the history and lifestyle from those times alive for younger youth and adults too 🙂
