I’m only going to share a few links today because we are on a mini vacation in Radium Hot Springs, British Columbia. Hope you enjoy these historical highlights.

Here’s an article on an important battle of World War I. (Also check out Library and Archives Canada’s series honouring Canada’s Victoria Cross recipients.)

In 2019 you’ll be able to learn about the history of the Statue of Liberty in a brand new museum.

What a project! James Errington is creating a mixtape for every year of recorded sound.

Take a look at this stunning new terraced library in Tianjin, China.

As promised here is my current NaNoWriMo word count: 3,442. As you can imagine, I’m disappointed with it, but we’ll see how next week goes. I might be reinvigorated by our vacation or I might be ready to admit that I don’t have the energy for NaNoWriMo this year. I’ll update you next Friday!

P.S. Three picture books about Remembrance Day to share with your kids.
