Term Two Library News
I would like to share with you some beautifully written picture story books that reflect upon the significance of Anzac Day.
In this story a mother and daughter at home in Australia around the time of World War 1 are baking Anzac biscuits and the mother is explaining the history behind these biscuits. This is interspersed with scenes and reports of what it was like to be a young soldier, the child's father, at the battle site.
'Meet The Anzacs' by Claire Saxby, tells us about men and women who have shaped Australia's history including our brave Anzac soldiers.
