Schools in Australia always observe Anzac Day, but this year it will be in the school holidays.This book, published 100 years after the end of World War l, will be a good addition to school libraries.

There are a number of Anzac books suitable for lower primary school children and this one is about a child actively preparing to go to the Dawn Service with her grandmother. Helen Evans made the original book by sewing the pictures and hand writing the script so that her grandchildren would learn about the significance of the day to her family. Now it has been printed as a paperback and is available for you to buy. It is suitable for children from 5 to 10 years.

Available from www.evansgalleryuralla.com where the original sewn book can also be seen, and from https://www.amazon.com/Anzac-Day-Lest-We-Forget/dp/1543405126/

One reviewer says,"This is such a beautiful book. Written with so much compassion. The way Hanna and her Nanna talk about Anzac Day, family, rosemary and remembrance is just perfect. This book should be in every Australian primary school library."
