The Witch of Blackbird Pond January 24, 2008
I read this awesome book called ‘The Witch of Blackbird Pond’ by Elizabeth George Speare. Katherine Tyler (Kit) has to move from her Carribean home of Barbados to the cold, unwelcoming Connecticut Colony to live with people she’s never met, and who don’t even know she’s coming! Once settled in, Kit takes an instant disliking to her new life. Her Uncle Matthew has the stern ways of the Puritan religion, and his family cannot do many things, such as not being allowed to have any decoration on their clothing and they must go to church twice on Sundays. Other then that, they work. The only place Kit feels at home is the meadows. When she befriends the witch that lives there, and is accused of witchcraft herself, what will she do? Who or what will save her? “The Witch of Blackbird Pond” is an interesting book full of secrecy and suspense, with a bit of romance mixed in. I’d recomend this book to people 9-100! Make sure you check it out!!
