[ISLMA-Share] Veteran's Day Assemblies - poems, readings, stories??

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I'm sharing "Veterans: Heroes in our neighborhood" (I think that's right)
with my prek-2 students this week.  It's in verse, and shows ordinary
community folks and what you might not know about their military past.  If
you have community helpers, etc. to share in local real lufe examples to go
with that it would be even better.
