The Captive Princess: A Story Based on the Life of Young Pocahontas
In The Captive Princess: A Story Based on the Life of Young Pocahontas, Pocahontas first enjoys special privileges as the great Powhatan’s daughter. However, with those privileges, Pocahontas also bears much responsibility within her family and her tribe.
When Englishmen come to Powhatans’ shores, Pocahontas is both curious and wary. As she works to bring peace and trust between the two sides, the Englishmen later betray her. When Pocahontas learns to accept God’s forgiveness, she learns how to forgive herself as well.
Girls ages 8 to 12 will especially enjoy this book. Wendy Lawton researches carefully before writing each Daughter’s of the Faith series book. She also gives careful attention to historic details, including a glossary of terms.
