Disgusting propoganda

The real story of Pocahontas is a 9-10 year old little girl that is forced from her tribe and preyed upon by adult colonizers. There's no way this woman named "Mari Hanes" has infused this story with anything other than colonizer propoganda. There's nothing cute or "breathtaking" about it. This is the most white-washed and culturally insensitive book I've seen in a long time. If you buy this one, you might as well admit you're into the white-Christian erasure of indigenous culture and that the heinous crimes committed against real children mean nothing to you.

This Is A Very Good Book!!!

It is about the Princess Rebecca Pocahontas, Princess Of Peace. It is based on real facts and is very aventurus. About 6 years goes by in this book and all that time she has many aventures. I do not really like history but i like Pocahontas and her story almost sonds like made up story but really happend.

tells her thoughts

I like this book because Pocahontas tells her thoughts and other things that are going on.
