The Witch Of Blackbird Pond



Elizabeth George Speare




Katherine Tyler (Kit) is a 16 year old girl that moved to Connecticut from Barbados. She went to live with her aunt and uncle because her mom and dad died in a boat accident, and she was raised by her grandfather. Kit did not tell anyone of her decision of leaving to Connecticut. She knew that it was not going to be the same as her island. Kit makes a couple of friends Hannah, Prudence and Nat--but she is forbidden to see Hannah and to teach Prudence how to write. People thought Hannah was a witch because she was a Quaker and an old woman. William confessed to her that he likes her and wants to marry her, Kit told him that they should wait. Judith and Mercy are Kit's cousins. Judith likes John, John likes Mercy, Mercy likes John. But Mercy and John don't know that they like each other. How will this all end? Will everyone marry the one they love?
