Blog post 3
For my I decided to research the man responsibile for thanksgiving. No it's not dean jones but it is a friandly Indian named Squanto. Squanto was very welcoming to the new settlers and brought them food as a peace offering. The pilgrims were very happy for this event and continued the tradition for years to come. That is thought to be the reason why we celebrate thanks giving to this day. Without Squanto playing his part in the pilgrims lives the pilgrims may not have been as sucessful and we may not have had thanksgiving today. That is part of Squantos role being played out with the pilgrims.

Squanto was indeed a major role in the pilgrims survival and your right without him they would not have been so successful and possibly might not have survived.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info...what was your source?
ReplyDeletei wrote mine on squanto also, and i found out that he was the main person that started thanksgiving. And if it wasn't for him we would never have celebrated the holiday. But very good job with your blog
