The Mayflower Voyagers
In the first episode of the eight part 'This is America, Charlie Brown' series, the Peanuts gang tells the story of the Mayflower voyage from England to the New World in 1620. They detail the hardships the Pilgrims faced while trying to adapt to their new land, and how it was the help of the Natives Samoset, Squanto, and the Wampanoag Chief Massasoit that helped them survive. The special ends the next fall, when the Pilgrims share their bountiful harvest with the Natives in a feast of Thanksgiving. Written by Lizzie Modern
