  2. Kia ora Nevaeh,
    Thanks for posting your recent work on ANZAC Day. Your selections to write about- War Memorials, First World War mascots and the audio book "Dawn Parade"- were varied and interesting. I especially found the idea of mascots unusual. I'dd never thought much about fighting units having real animals as mascots. Likewise, your answer to the question about How would feel to have a War Memorial in your honor was very thoughtful.
    When your write more about War Memorials, you might research more about their architecture. Keep up the good effort!
