America’s White Table

November 9, 2009 by Dawn

Each November 11, our country acknowledges the sacrifices made by and honor given to our military personnel on Veteran’s Day. For many families, military service is a fact of life for their children, and for others, it’s an abstract concept that might be difficult for young children to comprehend. Margot Theis Raven’s picture book America’s White Table fits the bill in either case, in affirmation or as a resource.

We are proud to feature this book in honor of veterans. Click through and read my full review on 5 Minutes for Mom and enter a comment there to enter to win one of three copies from Sleeping Bear Press. We invite you to honor the veterans you know and love in your comment.

We’ve closed comments here to remind you to comment and enter on the post at 5 Minutes Mom.

Dawn’s own father, Grant Courchaine, and grandfather, William Dery, were proud members of the U.S. Navy and U.S. Army respectively. Family and books are common themes on her blog, my thoughts exactly.
