The Thanksgiving Story by Alice Dalgliesh
In The Thanksgiving Story… The Mayflower and the Speedwell were taking people to America. Then the Speedwell got in trouble. They were bringing stuff to the Indians. Giles, Constance, and Damaris Hopkins were on the Speedwell. They were also bringing stuff for them. Most for the Indians. The Speedwell was almost there. I like the part where They were bringing stuff to the Indians. It was on the Speedwell and the Mayflower. When they told them the Speedwell wasn’t working the Indians said it was OK. Because they had stuff. Then they had fun. They had a Party. The children had their own table. I do not like the part where the Speedwell wasn’t working. It was in the ocean. All the people got stuck. So, they swam. And dried in the Indians area. Then the other people swam. Soon they lived together.
