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

for 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
