There are many festivals in the United States and Canada , among which Thanksgiving

Day is a quite special one. Families and friends gather to eat and give thanks for

their blessing.

Thanksgiving Day is really a harvest festival. This is why it is celebrated in late

fall, after the crops are in. But one of the first thanksgivings in America had

nothing to do with a good harvest. On December 4, 1619, the Pilgrims from England

landed near what is now Charles City, Virginia. They knelt down and thanked God for

their safe journey across the Atlantic.

The first New England Thanksgiving did celebrate a rich harvest. The Pilgrims landed

at what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts, in 1620. They had a difficult time and the

first winter was cruel. Many of the Pilgrims died. But the next year, they had a good

harvest. So Governor Bradford declared a three-day feast

（盛宴）

. The Pilgrims invited

Indian friends to join them for their special feast. Everyone brought food.

In time, other colonies

（殖民地）

began to celebrate a day of thanksgiving. But it

took years before there was a national Thanksgiving Day. During the Civil War, Sarah

Josepha Hale persuaded Abraham Lincoln to do something about it. He declared the last

Thursday of November 1863 as a day of thanksgiving. Today, Americans celebrate this

happy harvest festival on the fourth Thursday in November. Canadians celebrate

Thanksgiving Day in much the same way as their American neighbors. But the Canadian

thanks-giving Day falls on the second Monday in October.

A. Sarah Josepha Hale
