Milton, Joyce

Pocahontas: An American Princess

(4) K-3 All Aboard Reading series. Illustrated by Shelly Hehenberger. In simple, clear language, Milton purports to tell the true story of Pocahontas and John Smith, including the alternative theory that Pocahontas may have saved Smith's life in response to her father's instructions rather than out of love. The narrative is compelling, if somewhat romantic in its interpretation of Pocahontas's life. Golden-hued illustrations capture the mood of the tale.
