The Pilgrim's Progress - John Bunyan

It seems cliche to call this book a classic, then again I did read it through twice consecutively. Bunyan captures life and all of the triumphs and valleys, all of the people we meet along the way with simplicity and clarity. Christian and his companions give instruction and hope and the scene of Christian and Hopeful crossing the River Jordan together was my favorite scene in the book.

The language, poetry and illustrations all add to the enjoyment of the book. It is a must read for Christians and literature lovers alike.
