America's white table / Margot Theis Raven ; illustrated by Mike Benny.
Subject 1. Rites and ceremonies--Fiction.--sears 2.
Veterans--Fiction.--sears 3. Heroes and heroines--Fiction.--sears 4.
Tables--Fiction.--sears 5. Uncles--Fiction.--sears
Summary Three children set a special white table in memory of service
members fallen or missing in action, and especially in honor of their Uncle Jim, a
POW in Vietnam.
I set a small table for one in the center of the library, have classes come for a
reading of the book, call the local paper, etc.
The book is very moving and gives a new spin on veterans.
Good luck.

Hi,
I'm looking for suggestions, particularly picture books that cover Veteran's
Day (fiction or non-fiction). I already use The Wall by Eve Bunting and have
a few other items but I'm looking for some new things to share. Thanks for
any suggestions you might send my way.
