The Pilgrims were English people who sailed to North America, a newly discovered land. Their voyage was difficult because of bad weather. They reached land two months later and settled in Plymouth. Half of the Pilgrims managed to survive the first winter. The natives helped them to hunt and grow crops for food. The first harvest was very good so they had a feast to celebrate it.

The Pilgrims arrived by ship. They were tired and many of them were ill. They settled near our land and started a new town. At first, we were careful, but then we helped them to fish, hunt and grow crops. I felt sorry for them because their journey was very hard, and I was glad we could help.
