Summary: ~*~Great Story, Perfect For School Reading!~*~
Comment: Taking place in 1609, Elizabeth Barker, a 9 year old immagrint from England writes about her suffering life in Jamestown, Virginia. After Captain Smith and her old friend, Jessie Bolton return to England, she lives in missery until she meets Mary, a fourteen year-old girl. Everyone is starving terribly. A few have even died. Men are sent out of their town to find food, some do not return... Elizabeth has even caught her mother eating worms!
Life is harsh... Soon Elizabeth's mother dies and almost everyone grows ill, even Elizabeth her self! Many families leave the town and travel into the wild, hoping for more luck. Now, only a few families remain. Soon, Her brother Caleb will come on the supply ship in Spring. Many pray they will survive until then... I recommend this book to any one who enjoys history and adventure!...

Summary: Book Two an excellent sequel
Comment: The Starving Time opens up exactly where Elizabeth left off writing in Book One. She is terribly saddened over the departure of her best friend Jessie who is going back to England with her father after the loss of his wife, and Captain John Smith who had also been a good friend. She finds friendship in a girl named Mary, who is in love with a boy named John, who she loathes more than anyone in the whole colony. But that is just the little things. Elizabeth and the rest of the colonists have to endure so many things; the title tells exactly what the book is about. She even sees her mother eatting worms because she is so starved. But most of all what gets Elizabeth through this terrible ordeal is knowing that come spring, her twin brother Caleb will be on the new ships coming to Jamestown with so many good things in tow. I recommend this book to anyone providing you have the read the first though. You will not be disappointed.

Summary: The great book.
Comment: When I first got this book I didn't want to let it go . It was so interseting that I didn't want to go to sleep.The part I liked was that Elizabeth's mom had a baby. Also that Elizabeth and Jessie asked Captain John Smith if he can go back to England and say hi to Caleb. I had fun reading this book.If you heard about this book then check it out.
