A Plymouth Partnership: Pilgrims and Native Americans (Library of the Pilgrims)
Grade 2-4-These competently done titles deal with the history of  the colony in segments. They have readable texts with ample  white space and large type, appropriate for the youngest  readers, but they treat the subjects and students with respect.  Sidebars feature additional important information. The  full-page, mostly color illustrations on every spread add to the  texts. Many are of contemporary scenes; some show reproductions  of common objects of the period. The volume on Pilgrims and  Native Americans is especially good, explaining the helpfulness  of the Wampanoags and the treaty that the colonists signed with  their chief, Massasoit. As in the "Plimouth Plantation Museum"  series, these titles will do much to clarify myths about the  Plymouth Colony.Barbara Buckley, Rockville Centre Public  Library, NYCopyright 2002 Reed Business Information, Inc.
