This review is written by Becca Rothfuss, age 12.

"This Dear Bought Land" was written by Jean Lee Latham in 1957.

The main character is David Waren. He is fifteen. David's father is going to leave him in England and go to Jamestown. The story is set in the 1600's.

When his father dies, David must go to Jamestown in his place. He faces a long hard voyage and much hardship. Will he arive safely in Jamestown? Can they keep from war with the Indians?

I really enjoyed reading this book. I think it is a good book because it helps one to understand what life was like in the 1600's for an adventurous young boy.
