***Summary:
A young Native American (Indian) by the name of Pocahontas helped bring peace to two separate worlds; hers and the English (whites). The Indians and white people traded goods due to the peace Pocahontas brought. She even saved a man's life when her father almost killed him. His name was Captain John Smith.
Later, John Smith captured Pocahontas and kept her locked up. He wanted corn, from her people (Indians), to trade for the life of Pocahontas.
After living in the village for so long, Pocahontas married an English guy named John Rolfe. She died years after moving to England, with John, and the Pocahontas Peace Treaty was broken.

**Disclaimer***
This is a note for all readers who are studying the life of Pocahontas. This quote is at the end of the book:
"If we want to tell Pocahontas's true story, we have to accept that there are things we don't know about her. But we can still remember and share the things we do know Pocahontas... Some people may not have told the truth, and some made mistakes in what they told. Along the way, the real Pocahontas got lost."

I find this extremely important because just about every video, book, or other material that I have read about her, there is something different (major and minor things) about her story that is either left out or changed.

Some stories only include John Smith, Pocahontas, and her dad. Other include them three plus Pocahontas marrying an English man named John Rolfe.
This book opens with Pocahontas's name means "playful one". In another book, of the same title, (by Pamela Hill Nettleton) that I came across it said her name meant "spoiled child".
