The history and tragic majesty of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery — and the dedicated Sentinels who guard it — are revealed in this poignant nonfiction book for children. Published on the 100th anniversary of the tomb’s creation.

Gottesfeld’s poetic text grabs the heart and Tavares’ gorgeous illustrations add reverence. This unique tribute to America’s unnamed fallen should be in every library in the land, available to children and adults alike. Most highly recommended!

5 of 5 Stars

Thanks to Jeff Gottesfeld, Matt Tavares and Candlewick Press for the review copy. Opinions are mine.
