Just a few examples: Glyn Harper's Le Quesnoy: the story of the town New Zealand saved, Chris Slane and Matt Elliott's Nice day for a war : adventures of a Kiwi Soldier in World War l, Susan Brocker's Brave Bess and the Anzac Horses and Dreams of warriors, Sandy Nelson's The ghosts of Iron Bottom Sound, Sandy McKay's When our Jack went to war, Lorraine Orman's Here come the Marines and Leon Davidson's Scarecrow army, Red haze and Zero hour. My Anzac day book covers NZ involvement in WWI and Lighthouse family is set in WW2. The School Journal is also publishing many stories, articles and poems about NZers in war.Philippa Werryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10459995279772723450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339701980146690201.post-36948908515444140562013-10-19T18:30:50.519-07:002013-10-19T18:30:50.519-07:00This sounds like a great read.
