Book Reviews of The Double Life of Pocahontas
Book Review: Excellent book for any child wanting to learn the real story
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are looking for a good book for children that tells the real story about Pocahontas this is the book! This is actually the first book I read about Pocahontas that got me interested in her, her people, Jamestown and this area of history. Here it is 15 years later and I would still highly recommend this book.
I cannot say enough good things about it since it is an easy read and very informative all at the same time. As someone who knows all too well how many horrible books, especially children's books, there are out there about Pocahontas, Jamestown, the Powhatan Indians it is no small feat to find a good one. As someone who not only knows and loves the history but works at a site where this history is fully relevant I can say it is a great buy for any child interested in the real history. Buy it!
Summary of The Double Life of Pocahontas
In a story that is as gripping as it is historical, Jean Fritz reveals the true life of Pocahontas. Though at first permitted to move freely between the Indian and the white worlds, Pocahontas was eventually torn between her new life and the culture that shaped her.
