Keepunumuk: Weeâchumun's Thanksgiving Story
by Danielle Greendeer
In this Wampanoag story told in a Native tradition, two kids from the
Mashpee Wampanoag tribe learn the story of Weeâchumun (corn) and the first
Thanksgiving.

The Thanksgiving story that most Americans know celebrates the Pilgrims.
But without members of the Wampanoag tribe who already lived on the land
where the Pilgrims settled, the Pilgrims would never have made it through
their first winter. And without Weeâchumun (corn), the Native people
wouldn't have helped.

An important picture book honoring both the history and tradition that
surrounds the story of the first Thanksgiving.
