{"product_id":"squantos-journey-the-story-of-the-first-thanksgiving","title":"Squanto's Journey: The Story of the First Thanksgiving","description":"\u003cp\u003eSquanto's Journey tells the remarkable true story of Squanto — a Pokanoket man who was kidnapped by an English captain, sold into slavery in Spain, made his way to England, taught himself the language, and finally returned to his homeland, only to find his entire tribe wiped out by disease. When the Mayflower's Pilgrim settlers landed on those same shores in 1620, it was Squanto who chose to welcome them, teach them to plant corn and fish, and help negotiate the peace that led to the first Thanksgiving feast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJoseph Bruchac — himself of Abenaki heritage — tells this story with dignity and historical accuracy from Squanto's point of view, paired with Greg Shed's glowing gouache illustrations. This is an essential choice for students because it presents the first Thanksgiving from a Native American perspective, correcting the oversimplified version most children know.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Books del Sur","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":43843381133430,"sku":"9780152060442","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1752\/6773\/files\/Squantos_journey_a05a5bc3-22b4-4588-9c8f-2ae4b588b5e8.png?v=1783017743","url":"https:\/\/booksdelsur.com\/products\/squantos-journey-the-story-of-the-first-thanksgiving","provider":"Books del Sur","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
