 The Pilgrim family | wanted to move to live a faraway country. They had heard of a brand new world on the other side of the sea |
| They said goodbye | to their friends who said "Good luck! Farewell." And they went on their journey in two big boats, The Mayflower and the Seedwell |
| They set out | from England happy. There was a lot of singing and laughter. But the Speedwell suddley sprung a leak. And started to fill with water. |
| As the water | gushed in. Someone said, "we're sinking, we're sinking! We'll never make it to the new world. I don't know what we were thinking!" |
| The Pilgrims were | very worried. But then they heard a voice. It was the Captain of the Mayflower. what he said made them rejoice. |
| "Do you think | I would leave you sinking? When there's room in my boat for you? Climb aboard and we'll soon be sailling, we have room for 102." |
| Everyone got on | board. It was quite a squeeze. For days and weeks and months. They sailed across the seas. |
| Storms blew and | the Mayflower was tossed on waves and foam. But the Pilgrims were determined. To get to their new home. |
| At last, after | 66 days and nights. The pilgrims sighted land. Although it was not actually the place that they had planned. |
| They sailed around | for a bit more. Looking for somewhere to dock. And eventually, they settled down at a place called Plymouth Rock. |
| They found some | Natives living there. Who all seemed kind and good. The pilgrims were very hungry. And the Natives gave them food. |
| They gave them | pumpkin, corn,venison, and turkey. The Thanksgiving meal that they shared. Became a part of history. |
| So the Mayflower | and the Pilgrims survived their relocation. Their children's children children became a might nation. |
