(3) 4-6 In alternating verse narratives, Native American Kimi and Roanoke colonist Alis describe their developing friendship. The two girls provide perspective on life in their communities and on how each interacts with the other. This intriguing and fresh look at a sixteenth-century mystery is also an exploration of what it means to be a friend and to belong. An author's note separates facts from speculation. Glos.
