The Witch of Blackbird Pond is a book about Kit. Her grandfather has just died, leaving her an orphan, in Barbados. Kit sails on the Dolphin to Connecticut to go and live with her Aunt Rachel and her terrifying Uncle Matthew. On the ship, she meets a boy about her age named Nathan Eaton. In Connecticut, she finds that life is very different from her homeland. Raised with silk dresses and slaves, she now is expected to do the work herself. Kit finds peace at one place though, the hut of Hannah. Hannah is a Quaker who lives in the meadow and is suspected of being a witch. Kit soon finds that Hannah is also friends with Nat. She has been advised and ordered not to go around Hannah but does not heed these warnings and soon Kit is accused of witchcraft herself!
