This review is from: James Towne: Struggle for Survival (Hardcover)
This is the book for your younger children, or for your entire family, to get a better appreciation for the Jamestown Colony. We may plan a visit to the Jamestown site next summer, and this book gives us one more reason.I'm a mom raising a family of boys, and I look for books that capture the interest of a wide spread of ages. This book is good for ages "6 to dead," as my kids say. The high-quality illustrations really get the job done. They convey information and mood that round out the story and elaborate on the troubles, without being TOO scary. Pictured are an Indian attack on the settlers in 1607, a nighttime burial, Pocahontas interrupting the execution of Captain Smith, the starving people in tatters. The book gives voice to the different perspectives at the colony. It's a good teaching tool. Very well done. |
