EPL Picks: Memorable Books for Kids on Remembrance Day

Remembrance Day is a solemn day in Canada. It is a day where, at the eleventh hour on the eleventh day of the eleventh month, we intentionally pause to reflect on the past and remember the service men and women who have sacrificed their lives for this country. It is also a day for thoughtful discussion, not only to consider the present and the future in the hopes that we will never see a WWIII, but to also consider the very nature of conflict and peace. Below are a few picture books and chapter books for children to help provide an opportunity for reflection and to spark conversations around these tough, but necessary subjects.
