Feast on Turkey and Good Wishes at Thanksgiving
Four weeks ago US children dressed as monsters and asked for sweets. That was Halloween. In a few weeks, American houses will be red and green and filled with presents for Christmas.
As if all this isn’t enough, on Thursday this week, America will enjoy another festival — Thanksgiving.
