Summary: All over, White tables are set in honor of veterans who have fallen, are missing or held captive. This book discusses how the table is set and the significance of each part of the table setting, from the salt to the titled chair, Katie and her family honor all of those who serve in the armed forces.
Classroom Use: I will use this book to provide student awareness about the importance and observance of Veteran's Day. It is a very powerful text that uses symbolic representation well. After being exposed to the text, students will write a story using symbols to share about their family.
