A Poppy Is to Remember Tekijä: Heather Patterson
Canada
A girl goes from isolation to an open heart with her playful Gran, whose death she must also meet and learn from.
I have no criticism of this lovely book (paintings are marvellous, too), but I was sorry to predict the gran's death as soon as she entered the stage. Are old people only for dying? Asking for a friend.

"With soothing words and illustrations aimed specifically at younger readers, children will learn how the bright red poppy became the symbol for honouring those who fought for freedom.
The text is simple and is combined with stunning paintings by award winning illustrator Ron Lightburn. The familiar poem, "In Flanders Fields," is included, along with information about the symbolism and history of the poppy and Remembrance Day - all geared towards helping parents and teachers explain the significance of past and present wars and Canada's peacekeeping missions." -- Google Books… (lisätietoja)

Tämä arvostelu kirjoitettiin LibraryThingin Varhaisia arvostelijoita varten.I received this book as an early reviewer. It's cute and kids will find it hilarious--it uses the word "farts" after all. :)
