Summary

Samuel Collier de doce años, es un niño humilde de las calles de Londres. Cuando se convierte en el paje del Capitán John Smith y aborda el Susan Constant con destino al Nuevo Mundo, no puede creer su buena fortuna.

Ha oído que por aquellos lados el oro llega a las costas con cada marea. Pero a partir del tormentoso viaje y su primer contacto con los nativos, se da cuenta de que el Nuevo Mundo no es nada parecido a lo que él imaginaba. La exuberante costa de Virginia donde establecen la colonia de James Town es a la vez hermosa e imponente, y es difícil saber quién es amigo o enemigo. A medida que aprende el idioma de los indios algonquinos y observa la sabia diplomacia del Capitán Smith, Samuel comienza a darse cuenta que puede ser quien él quiera ser en esta nueva tierra.
 
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Twelve-year-old Samuel Collier is a lowly commoner on the streets of London. So when he becomes the page of Captain John Smith and boards the Susan Constant, bound for the New World, he can’t believe his good fortune.

He’s heard that gold washes ashore with every tide. But beginning with the stormy journey and his first contact with the native people, he realizes that the New World is nothing like he imagined. The lush Virginia shore where they establish the colony of James Town is both beautiful and forbidding, and it’s hard to know who’s a friend or foe. As he learns the language of the Algonquian Indians and observes Captain Smith’s wise diplomacy, Samuel begins to see that he can be whomever he wants to be in this new land.
