Summary: A breathtaking 17th century young girl's adventure
Comment: This novel combines fascinating scholarship of 17th century early colonial New England, both the settlers and the Lanape tribe, with a gripping and sensitive adventure of a white girl taken captive by the Lanape who have killed the rest of her family. That she first fights them, attempting escape and then slowly begins to accept them as her own family is an an engrossing journey for the reader. The book has much to say about family, tradition and love. By the book's end I felt more of a native American than myself and did not want to leave that world. A second triumph for the young author who is making a national name for herself in fine young adult books set in an older America.

Summary: Trouble's Daughter: The Story of Susanna Huchinson
Comment: I just read this book and it is very good! I loved it! It is about a girl who is taken captive by Indians. At first she hates it, but over the years she grows to love the Indians. Then she gets a chance to go live with long-lost family. She must decide between her two worlds. I thought it was very inspiring and I definitely reccomend it to anyone!

Summary: Trouble's Daughter, a reader's point of view
Comment: I absolutely LOVED this book. I've read it over so many times, I've practically memorized half the book. Here is a summary/essay I wrote on it:

Anne Hutchinson. She is notorious throughout all the colonies. She is a rebel. She speaks in front of large crowds, criticizing the ministers of the churches. She has visions. She was banished from Massachusetts Bay Colony. She is stubborn. She is believed to be a witch. She is the wife of William Hutchinson. She is the mother of many children, one of which is Susanna Hutchinson. She is trouble.

Susanna Hutchinson. She is an Indian captive. She is an orphan. She is the lone survivor of a massacre. Her only family is far away and does not know where she is. She is living among strangers. She is becoming more accustomed to the Indian ways. She is living in the house of her mother¡¦s murderer. She is getting visions. She is trouble¡¦s daughter.

Read a novel about a young girl who is torn from the life she has always known and thrown into another one. Susanna begins to accept the fact that she will never be rescued and soon grows to like the idea. She lives her life with the Indians as if she was always there. But, will she remain with her Indian family, or will she be taken back to a British community?
