5.0 out of 5 stars A Poppy Is to Remember, Nov 7 2008

By	Tami Brady "Whole Health Therapist" (Calgary, Canada) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

This review is from: A Poppy is to Remember (Paperback)

I think now more than ever before we need to remember those that have fought for our country so that we could have a better life. It seems as the years pass, we find it easier to forget. With fewer Veterans of World War I and II each year to remind us of their sacrifice, we only give lip service to their memory. We may feel sad when we hear on the news that another Canadian peacekeeper has died serving his or her country but quickly forget as we continue on with our regular routine. Remembrance Day has just become another holiday.

A Poppy Is to Remember reminds the next generation about their Canadian past. It tells the story of the Poppy and of the poem In Flanders Fields. This Remembrance Day, learn the true meaning of the poppy and wear yours with pride.
