Written by Heather Patterson. Published by Scholastic Canada Ltd., 2004. Description: |
| 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 (awarded the
1992 Governor-General's Award for Waiting for the Whales). The familiar poem "In Flanders Fields", along with information about the symbolism and history of the poppy and Remembrance Day will help teachers and parents explain the significance of past and present wars and Canada's peace-keeping missions. A perfect story to read, share and discuss during Remembrance Day activities. Intended for ages 4-8. |
