Sinopse

'The Story of Pocahontas and Captain John Smith' is a picture book that tells the story of Pocahontas, a Native American woman, belonging to the Powhatan people, notable for her association with the colonial settlement at Jamestown, Virginia. Pocahontas is most famously linked to colonist Captain John Smith, who arrived in Virginia with 100 other settlers where they built a fort on a marshy peninsula on the James River. The colonists had numerous encounters over the next several months with the people of Tsenacommacah – some of them friendly, some hostile. A hunting party led by Powhatan's close relative Opechancanough then captured Smith while he was exploring on the Chickahominy River and brought him to Powhatan's capital at Werowocomoco.

    Lina's father had suggested she go "someplace different" for the summer, and she's beginning to wish she hadn't listened.

But when a gust of wind carries off her umbrella, it leads Lina down a secret path between the trees to a strange and incredible world. In the hidden village of Misty Valley, centaurs roam the cobblestone streets and gnomes visit shops stuffed with spellbooks and enchanted desserts. All magic has a dark side, though, and sometimes even sorcerers need a human's helping hand.
