Books with author Victoria Garrett Jones

The tale of the Powhatan princess from the Virginia woodlands is one of the best known and most loved in American history. While myth and legend have clouded some of the details, time has not diminished her bravery, selflessness, and commitment to peace. Nearly four centuries after her death, Pocahontas remains an inspiration, and her story will captivate every young reader.

Kids will love to see what's under the sea...and what words they can find in these marine-themed puzzles, too. It's a fun mix of fabulous facts and word games that's pure enjoyment. For every watery creature, there's information on its size, where it lives, what it eats, and what color it is-and lots more too. As children read, they'll find bolded words, which they can then try to locate in the puzzle itself. The 33 entries include lobsters and oysters, a fierce barracuda, a big blue whale, sea horses and sea lions, giant clams and giant squid, a stinging Portuguese man-of-war, sunfish and swordfish, electric eels and elephant seals, and other cool swimmers.
