The Poppy War: A Novel by R. F Kuang A brilliantly imaginative talent makes her exciting debut with this epic historical military fantasy, inspired by the bloody history of China’s twentieth century and filled with treachery and magic, in the tradition of Ken Liu’s Grace of Kings and N.K. Jemisin’s Inheritance Trilogy. When Rin aced the Keju—the Empire-wide test to find the most talented youth to learn at the Academies—it was a shock to everyone: to the test officials, who couldn’t believe a war orphan from Rooster Province could pass without cheating; to Rin’s guardians, who believed they’d finally be able to marry her off and further their criminal enterprise; and to Rin herself, who realized she was finally free of the servitude and despair that had made up her daily existence. That she got into Sinegard—the most elite military school in Nikan—was even more surprising. But surprises aren’t always good. Because being a dark-skinned peasant girl from the south is not an easy thing at Sinegard. Targeted from the outset by rival classmates for her color, poverty, and gender, Rin discovers she possesses a lethal, unearthly power—an aptitude for the nearly-mythical art of shamanism. Exploring the depths of her gift with the help of a seemingly insane teacher and psychoactive substances, Rin learns that gods long thought dead are very much alive—and that mastering control over those powers could mean more than just surviving school. For while the Nikara Empire is at peace, the Federation of Mugen still lurks across a narrow sea. The militarily advanced Federation occupied Nikan for decades after the First Poppy War, and only barely lost the continent in the Second. And while most of the people are complacent to go about their lives, a few are aware that a Third Poppy War is just a spark away . . . Rin’s shamanic powers may be the only way to save her people. But as she finds out more about the god that has chosen her, the vengeful Phoenix, she fears that winning the war may cost her humanity . . . and that it may already be too late.

Are Poppies Racist? « Great War Fiction
[D]uring the last few years an exceptionally debased form of pacifism, growing out of the philosophy of materialism, has attempted to divide us into two camps: on the one side ignorant, bloodthirsty militarists, and on the other enlightened pacifists. It is the object of the self-styled enlightened people to 
The Red Poppy by David Hill - Goodreads
A great picture book describing WW1 and what is was like as a soldier. It tells astory of a young man in the trenches having to fight. It includes a war dog that was used for passing messages. And a story about the red poppies that grew in the field of battle. Would be a great pick for a shared story during a war themed study

Even the humble poppy can't escape the culture wars | Opinion | The
Consider the innocent poppy – for some time in this country a symbol of the memory of the fallen soldiers in the first world war, and all servicemen and women killed in conflict.

Poppy (Poppy, #1) by Mary Hooper - Goodreads
I don't know if there really is an explosion (pardon the war pun) of 'women in war'novels, or if it's just that I have suddenly become aware of them. At any rate, I certainly welcome the development. Although Mary Hooper's recent World War I duet, Poppy and Poppy in the Field, are not as dazzling as Elizabeth Wein's war
