The First Thanksgiving

by Gayatri

Boom! Boom! My brother was hunting deer when we heard a loud sound we had never heard before. Arjun hid behind the green blackberry bush. I was brave and climbed on the big, tall rock behind the bushes. I looked to see where the sound was coming from. I saw a huge boat, and didn’t know who was on the boat. I heard stories about the Englishmen before. They came for land and took Squanto, a brave leader from our tribe. They brought diseases that made many of my people die. I knew that they wanted something from us. I wonder what they want? Do they want something which is special to my tribe?
