A level 1 Oxford Bookworms Library graded reader. Written for Learners of English by Tim Vicary.

A beautiful young Indian girl, and a brave Englishman. Black eyes, and blue eyes. A friendly smile, a laugh, a look of love . . . But this is North America in 1607, and love is not easy. The girl is the daughter of King Powhatan, and the Englishman is a white man. And the Indians of Virginia do not want the white men in their beautiful country.

This is the famous story of Pocahontas, and her love for the Englishman John Smith.

Tim Vicary is an experienced teacher and writer. He has published two novels, The Blood Upon the Rose and Cat and Mouse. He lives and works in England. Jennifer Bassett is the Series Editor for the Oxford Bookworms Library, for which she has written original stories One-Way Ticket and The

The third book, Bold Counsel, was awarded the Awesome Indies Seal of Excellence. The fourth book, Broken Alibi, is already gathering positive reviews.
