Description
Aly spends Remembrance Day with her great-grandfather. The latter is all dressed up, beret on his head and medals lined up on his veteran's chest. Cling, clang, cling... One medal at a time, Aly discovers what her grandfather experienced in Normandy, the origin and meaning of the poppy and the importance of this day.
