The Oregon Trail: Ollie's Great Adventure
Children's story narrated by Ollie, the ox pulling the covered wagon over the 2,000-mile Oregon Trail route in 1843. He pulls the wagon on the six-month journey with the Tyler family, Mr. and Mrs. Tyler and their son, Johnny. Included is a map from which children can learn, lists of supplies that the Tylers needed for the trip and details about covered wagons.
Ollie Ox also shares the spellbinding adventures of climbing and descending steep hills, making dangerous river crossings, and meeting and trading with various Indian tribes. Well-known trail landmarks like Ash Hollow, Courthouse Rock, Chimney Rock, Independence Rock, Devil's Gate and others are also featured. Additional illustrations include William Henry Jackson watercolors and contemporary photographs of sites along the trail.
