About the Author
HELEN L. TAYLOR, has carefully rewritten a centuries-old tale in order that children might be able to grasp the truths set out by John Bunyan in 1678. JOHN BUNYAN, after years of dealing with his own inner struggles, gave his life to the Lord and spent the remainder of his life preaching and teaching truth without fear. Perhaps his greatest legacy is this work, The Pilgrim’s Progress.
