3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting story about the Indians and the Englishmen., November 12, 1998
By A Customer
I liked this book because it was a very interesting story about Squanto and his journeys with the English in the New World and in England. I found it sad the way he was put on display and mistreated by Captain Weymouth. In the end it was wonderful that he found a home in the New World with the pilgrims.

1.0 out of 5 stars An overused and stereotypical piece of writing, November 20, 2001
By A Customer
This book, although a resource used in many classrooms across the United States, has been overused. This book has an improper representation of the history of Squanto's life. Research has not been done at all in the development of this book.The way in which the author portrays Squanto is very poor as well. This book was written in 1954, a time in which the idea of what an Indian was supposed to be was stereotypical. Squanto is portrayed as unable to speak proper English even after 9 years in England. I would not recommend that this book be used in the classroom unless it is to address the stereotypical view of Indians. There are more recent publications that are much more suitable for reading.
For a book with accurate historical information and reference items in the back of the book, see Joseph Bruchac's Squanto's Journey.
If I could give a rating of zero, I would.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent biographical book!, December 15, 1999
By A Customer
Clyde Robert Bulla does an excellent job with bringing the content of the book down to the readers level. This book is emotional as well as informational which is probably why younger children love it.
