One Interesting Fact About Spices

My Mom wanted me to work on my narration skills, so she made me read a few paragraphs on the history of spices. I found out a lot of interesting things about spices. Did you know that getting spices was what was really on Christopher Columbus's mind when he set off towards the West?Anyway, one interesting thing about spices. Here it is. Did you know that spices were worth a lot when the Arabs were trading spices? They only were able to until Marco Polo traveled to China and found out where the Arabs got the spices and then the Europeans took over supplying themselves with spices. Well, that was one fact, right? My work is done here. Toodles!
