This beautifully illustrated book, produced with the Royal British Legion, explains to children why it's important to remember the service and sacrifice of so many men and women from every background, who ensured our freedoms and way of life.
The sensitively written text tells of the world wars as well as other wars that are remembered at this time. It explains the history behind poppies, why we hold 1- or 2-minute silences and what happens in commemorative parades around the world.
The book includes poems and quotes from veterans across different conflicts, and who served and sacrificed in different ways, including some full-length poems such as 'For the Fallen' by Laurence Binyon.
We Will Remember Them combines facts, information, poetry and quotes to introduce children aged 7+ to this important time. A must-have book for school libraries and children learning about war and conflict, helping to prompt discussion about who we remember and why.
