When Christopher Columbus landed on the island of San Salvador in 1492, what he discovered were the Taino Indians. Told from a young Taino boy's point of view, this is a story of how the boy tried to warn his people against welcoming the strangers who seemed more interested in golden ornaments that friendship. (Patricia Langan, Dichiaro's Principal) by Jane Yolen
