Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November each year.

It was first celebrated by the Pilgrims who arrived in the New World to mark their first successful harvest. They invited the Native Americans to join in a feast in 1621 and this became the first Thanksgiving.
Traditional food enjoyed by millions of Americans on Thanksgiving includes turkey, yams (sweet potato), stuffing and pumpkin pie for dessert.
Since the 1940s, the President of the United States hands out a pardon for one turkey each year! The pardoned turkey is never to be eaten and is allowed to live out its natural life.
