Conflicting Roots

Matty Wheet’s grandmother Abigail knows secrets about the family’s ancestry,
but no one else believes her. In 1978 when Matty learns she is descended from
leaders of the Native Wampanoag nation who fought against Plymouth Colony in
King Philip’s War (1675), she fears her life has been ruined. Tim Romney, her life-
long friend, searches ancient history and finds reasons she, and he, can be proud
of their ancestors.
