An Irish Holiday around the World
Yesterday was Saint Patrick’s Day. It is an important holiday for the Irish. They are the people of Ireland. But who is St. Patrick? He brought Christianity to Ireland about 1,500 years ago. Many Irish are very religious, so St. Patrick is very important to them. Millions of Irish left Ireland in the 19th century and went to other countries, so now people celebrate St. Patrick’s Day all around the world. They wear green clothes because green is the color of Ireland. In the U.S, there are big parades in New York City, Chicago, and Boston. People also like to drink on St. Patrick’s Day, and some bars even serve green beer! (112 words) You can send me a comment or your own story at jaremaga@gmail.com
