About this title

Synopsis

Discover the moving true story of the Native American named Squanto, who is captured from his beloved Pawtuxet tribe, taken to Spain, and sold into slavery. Years later, Squanto regains his freedom and embarks on a miraculous journey back to his homeland where he teaches the Pilgrims how to survive the difficult early years in the Plymouth colony...culminating in the first Thanksgiving celebration. A touching drama about trust, faith and renewal.

From AudioFile

Rabbit Ears pairs this story with a elebrated actor and adds visually appealing picture book to accompany it. The Native American stories may be new to listeners, but Graham Greene gives a clear and polished reading. Paul McCandless's accompaniment to Squanto and the First Thanksgiving adds a haunting, melodic atmosphere reinforcing the sadness of Squanto's losing his heritage. R.F.W. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
