Summary
Meet Pocahontas!Fact-filled Rookie Read-About Biographies introduce the youngest readers to influential women and men, both past and present. Colorful photos and age appropriate text encourage children to read on their own-as they learn about people like Serena Williams, Neil Armstrong, Rosa Parks, Anne Frank and many more. Pocahontas' people, the Powhatan, were already living in Virginia when the first English settlers arrived. Without the help and friendship of this young American Indian girl, the settlers at Jamestown would surely have starved to death. She is one of America's earliest heroes.
