Book Overview

The seventh book in the beloved Poppy series by Newbery Medal-winning author Avi, with illustrations from Caldecott Medal-winning artist Brian Floca Has Ereth lost Poppy forever? Poppy, a deer mouse, has spent the long winter curled up inside her tree snag home in Dimwood Forest. When the ground thaws and life returns to the woods, Poppy sets out in search of excitement. Suddenly, swooped up by Luci the bat, Poppy is flying high over the forest. Meanwhile, Poppy's best friend, Ereth the grumbling porcupine, who was with Poppy when she vanished, is convinced that she has died. He sets out to give her the best funeral ever. Can Poppy find her way out of the bats' cave to set Ereth straight and return home after the adventure of a lifetime?

Beautiful

This is a beautiful book to read to children as I was crying through a bit of it it was difficult to get through the first time but very important for children to hear about. I read this to my five year old while we were learning about Veterans Day.

A Beautiful Book!

This book touched my heart. It is very moving and really captures the story in a way children can understand. One of the best children's books I've ever read, and the only one I've ever seen about the subject of the Wall or veterens. It is a lovely tribute.

Beautiful - brings out the sorrows of war, which we haven't experienced as much of since that time...

A Powerful, Quiet and Sad Story for Veteran's Day

Eve Bunting masterfully captures a somber, quiet visit to "The Wall" from a young boy's perspective. With deceptively simple language, Bunting paints a cold barren day, as father and son go to visit "grandfather's wall." The boy's youthful curiosity is carefully balanced against his dad's sobering pilgrimage.For many years, this has been my read-aloud of choice for primary grade classes in our school library just prior to...
