Thanksgiving

By: Una O

Thanksgiving is here and everyone is excited! It is celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November. It started in the year 1621. Do you know about the Pilgrims? I do! So you might like to thank them but they died. This is the story of Thanksgiving!

The Pilgrims were not allowed to have their own religion. So they got on boats from England and sailed to America. After a really tough winter, the Pilgrims went to get help from their Native American friends to teach them what to grow. The next year, there was  a lot of food and crops. The Pilgrims were thankful so they had a big feast!
