Violets Scarf | by Colleen Brown

Description

This book is about a small girl, World War I, and a hand-knitted scarf. Violet Cloughley lived in Riverton at the bottom of the South Island, New Zealand. When WWI started in 1914, Violet, aged eight, wanted to help the soldiers fighting overseas. So she knitted a scarf. This incredible true story is about the scarf Violet knitted and sent away as a ‘gift for soldier.’
