Keepunumuk: Weeâchumun's Thanksgiving Story ocean Jake AlexanderWritten and illustrated by four Indigenous creators, this beautiful picture book honors both the history and tradition that surrounds the story of 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, the Pilgrims would never have made it through their first winter. And without Weechumun (corn), the Native people wouldn't have helped.
