Poppy Day by Rosemary Moore
The book describes some of the terrible events of World Wars I and II and explains the reason for choosing November 11th as the day of remembrance. It also explains how the poppy came to be chosen as a symbol and who was responsible for organising the first poppy day.
This excellent book tells that story [of poppy day] in words, photos and artwork..From the first Poppy Day, in 1921, to today's ceremony at the Cenotaph, the facts are presented simply and clearly. It's good to see a book on this subject for young children. -- Manchester Evening News, Nov 00
