Era mi libro favorito de pequeña, no puedo ser crítica, además no hay que ser exigentes, no es una biografía de Pocahontas. Es nada más un cuentito para desmentir la historia de Disney.

This is not the true story

This book for young adults is good and well-written. I read it to keep practicing my English, but it was a nice discovery. I didn't know that the story of Pocahontas was based on reality, so I was surprised (and quite sad because of the end of the story).
I also liked the historical extracts between the chapters. Now I know something more about the State of Virginia, Jamestown, and George Washington.

a GREAT source of overall-historically-accurate information about the real story of Smith and Pocahontas' "relationship" and Pocahontas' life in general. It's like a nicely-rewritten Wikipedia entry about Pocahontas.

Some historical inaccuracies (minor):
*John Smith was actually pretty short.
*Pocahontas' name when she met Smith was Maotaka.

I say - read it!

This version doesn't show us a very little Pocahontans's relationship with John Smith. There are no cruel descriptions.
