(4) K-3 Colonies series. Each of the short books in this series attempts to provide a brief history of the founding, way of life, and governance of the colonies, as well as information on the original inhabitants and the interactions of the colonists with Native Americans. The writing is a bit choppy, and in some places the attempt at simplicity makes for poor and incomplete explanations. Many archival pictures help break up the text. A time line and list of websites is included. There are seven other fall 2001 books in this series. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Colonies titles: The Georgia Colony, The North Carolina Colony, The Massachusetts Colony, The New Hampshire Colony, The New York Colony, The Roanoke.]
