Setting!

In mid-April, 1687, in Connecticut on the River. The young lady Kit Tyler was traveling to America for the first time from Barbados which were she lived. When she first came to America by traveling on a sail boat, she first was disappointed of the way it looked, it was gloomy and gray. Types of houses were just little plain wooden boxes. Some other people in the book, noticed that Kit was a natural at sailing. Place's you could sleep were on the bottom of the boat. They were called cabins. This is were you would stay during a storm so you could at least get a little warmth during this time of traveling. Their way of making clothing was using a spinning wheel. Kit was the type of girl to help other's out even if it was to jump over board to get a little toy for a young child.
