32 pp. | Simon | July, 2003 | Trade ISBN 0-689-82321-5 $$16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Roger Roth. The enigmatic disappearance of English settlers from their compound at Roanoke Island is this book's unsolved mystery. The authors tell the complicated story of dangerous trans-Atlantic voyages, alternating friendships and betrayal of and by native tribes with some clarity, though definitions and other sidebars are sometimes distracting. Careful illustrations aid in interpretation. Timeline.
