43. Long long ago, in 1620, some poor English people went across the sea, in the ship they saw the land. They shouted: “Land! Land!” All the people were happy. They got to the land and saw some native people. They asked: “Where are we?” The native people said: “America! America!” At that time, these English people were very hungry, thirsty and tired. And the native people were very kind, they helped the English. They gave them corn and turkey. The English people said: thank you. Thanks for giving us food. Then they learnt to plant corn and fed turkeys. The next autumn, these English people had a lot of corn and turkeys. So they invited the native people to their homes and ate a big dinner. They say: “Thank you for your help and giving us food.” Then they have thanksgiving day every Autumn.
