Here is what people are saying about the Roanoke: The Lost Colony--An Unsolved Mystery from History
3 Star Rating  "like the concept, could have been better executed"2008-08-29
- Reviewed By juliebstout-peace
Personally, I find the story of Roanoke intriguing, so three stars may be too generous.

My daughter (age 8) liked the lead-in to the story about how the girl is trying to be a detective with her notebook and timeline, but it left me feeling a little cheated since we aren't introduced to the father (at least not in this volume, I haven't seen the others) and the girl's character is not fleshed out at all. There is nothing really personalized about her "notebook," and realistically, it's nothing like a notebook a girl would actually keep.

After the girl-detective's introduction, we delve into the story of Roanoke, but then almost immediately, the very next page, we get hit with the glossary words and the "notebook" sidebars. I found them to be distracting as an adult reader, and the notebook completely derailed my daughter off the narrative. The effect is really "busy"--- too much information, some of which is important, some which is less important or redundant, so the reader is encouraged to skip much of the content. The illustrations are not interesting enough (according to my daughter and I agree) to pull you back into the narrative.
I like the ending, how the book encourages the reader to discuss theories on what happened to the lost colony; however, I don't see other kids making it that far through the book. I know my daughter didn't.

Another thing, this is an odd observation, but rather important... the typeface is difficult to read. The font size is huge, with just a few words on each line, but the columns aren't justified like a newspaper column and sentences are broken up oddly. Especially with having so many sidebars on each page, the main text is discouraging for the grade level targeted because of the ill-conceived visual presentation.
 
4 Star Rating  "Roanoke The Lost Colony An Unsolved Mystery From History"2004-06-01
- Reviewed By Anonymous
This book was amazing! Full of interesting clues about the never-answered questions, "What really happened? Who is to blame for George Howe's death? And where is the colony now?" Jane Yolen brilliantly tells the story about how George Howe died, shot with arrows while fishing for crabs, and how the colony Roanoke disappeared twice without a trace.
A brilliant tale of mystery. (...)
 
4 Star Rating  "A great true life mystery"2004-05-19
- Reviewed By mhollandsworth2
This is a wonderful book for children ages 7 - 12. The historical information is presented in an organized way that captivates one's imagination. The illustrations keep a child's interest and the notebook pages help the reader try to solve the mystery.
