Thanksgiving is celebrated in the US on the fourth Thursday in November. For many Americans it

Thanksgiving, and many people make the whole weekend a vacation. Thanksgiving is associated with the
time when Europeans first came to North America. In 1620, the ship of Mayflower arrived, bringing
about 150 people who today are usually called Pilgrims. They arrived at the beginning of a very hard
winter and could not find enough to eat, so many of them died. But in the following summer the Native
Americans showed them what foods were safe to eat, so that they could save food for the next winter.
They held a big celebration to thank God and Native Americans for the fact that they had survived. Today
people celebrate Thanksgiving to remember these early days. The most important part of the celebration
is a traditional dinner with foods that come from North America.
