ISBN: 1635924367
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 42
Book Description
Here is the inspiring story behind the Veterans Day red poppy, a symbol that honors the service and sacrifices of our veterans. When American soldiers entered World War I, Moina Belle Michael, a schoolteacher from Georgia, knew she had to act. Some of the soldiers were her students and friends. Almost single-handedly, Moina worked to establish the red poppy as the symbol to honor and remember soldiers. And she devoted the rest of her life to making sure the symbol would last forever. Thanks to her hard work, that symbol remains strong today. Author Barbara Elizabeth Walsh and artist Layne Johnson worked with experts, primary documents, and Moina's great-nieces to better understand Moina's determination to honor the war veterans. A portion of the book's proceeds will support the National Military Family Association's Operation Purple®, which benefits children of the US Military.

For Hollywood influencer Poppy Fields, life is almost perfect. She wakes to sip coffee at her beachside bungalo, lunches with pretty people, and her name is on the list at all the right night clubs. Also, she shops. Like, a lot. When Poppy travels to Mexico, with six bulging suitcases in tow, she's ready for anything-sunbathing by breath-taking infinity pools, gourmet meals at five-star restaurants, glittering parties on patios overlooking the Pacific. Too bad she didn't pack for a deadly adventure. But then again, what does one wear for murder? Or kidnapping? Or meeting a Chihuahua with the heart of a lion? Turns out Poppy is more than just a Hollywood golden girl. But with death lurking around every corner, she'll need smarts, acting skills, and a lot of luck to make it back to Rodeo Drive.
