We finished Pocahontas today and started up into Squanto. I was reading right along, then had my girls working their IXL on devices while I continued to read. Then, before we knew it, they were begging me to finish the whole thing. This is our fourth experience with a story from the pen of Clyde Robert Bulla. While it was obvious that Pocahontas was a young girl, it was difficult to place just how old Squanto was with the story of Squanto, Friend of the Pilgrims. The tale was riveting and we couldn't wait to see what would happen to him next, but it was awful and so much more than I remember reading in the picture book we have read in years past around Thanksgiving. But then I suppose that is to be expected to move from picture book to chapter book. What bad luck and melancholy, but then what a great way to move forward in life, even if only for two years. Another legendary Indian of North America to die young.

We own a paperback copy of this book as recommended by BookShark Level 3, Sonlight D, Ambleside Online 3, and The Good & the Beautiful History 2 (TGTB Reading Level 4).
