"This was a nice, gentle introduction to Pocahontas. The illustrations were good, but I would have liked to see more clothing on her (even if it's not historically accurate). The story briefly touches on Jamestown and Captain Smith, but you'd need to read another book in order to fully cover that topic. I wish that it had told why she died instead of just saying "she never returned to her land".
This would be all you need (along with a Jamestown book) for K-2nd or 3rd grade. After that you could use this, but might want something more substantive.
I asked my boys how they liked the book and they replied "it's for girls" - but that didn't stop them from sitting right in front of it while I was reading and I later found tons of drawings of Indians and Jamestown and such."
