BR 2-14: Pocahontas

I will introduce this book. This book is love story, and it made me sad. 

In 1607, three ships left England and sailed to America. There were a hundred and fifty men on the ships, and they wanted to find a new world in the west a home in a new and exciting country. They finally arrived at Virginia. 

Algonquin Indians of Virginia were not happy. Someone said they should fight Englandmen. Someone these men were interesting.

John Smith was an Englandman. He was very excited for finding food for Christmas. Also, he liked beautiful nature in Virginia. John and his friends went to forest, but they were caught Algonquin. John was made to take King of the Algonquin, and he met Pocahontas who was daughter of king. They fall in love each other. 

After that, he was helped by her, and she sometimes leaned English from him

One day, one Algonquinquin was killed by white men. Englandmen and Algonquin killed each other. 

Pocahontas finally decided to live in Virginia without him. 


It is very sad story. If you want to readtrue love, I recommend you.
