"Squanto: Friend of the Pilgrims" by Clyde Robert Bulla (Preowned Paperback)

Squanto tells everyone he meets, "I am going on the great ship across the sea." "I wish you would not go," his mother tells him. "It's just for a little while," says Squanto. "I will come back." But before Squanto can return, many, many years go by - years full of adventure. And when Squanto does come back, his family is gone. His village has disappeared. New people have come - the Pilgrims.
