Description

A new illustrated story celebrating the poppy's history, Poppy Field tells an original tale that explains the meaning behind this iconic symbol. Michael Morpurgo and Michael Foreman have teamed up with the Royal British Legion to create a heartwarming story about family, loss, and remembrance.

The book follows Martens as he learns about his family's history through a faded poem hanging in their home. From a young girl comforting a grieving soldier to an unexpected meeting of strangers, war has shaped Martens's family in profound ways.

A full-colour, illustrated afterword explains the history that inspired this story, while 50p from each paperback sale will be donated to the Royal British Legion Trading Limited, supporting their charitable work.
