A Tiny Statue in Amsterdam Tells a Story

Imagine a tiny statue in Amsterdam that tells a story about soldiers from a long time ago.

This statue, made in 1900, shows a farmer with a gun, remembering soldiers from a war called the Boer War.

The Boer War was fought in South Africa, and many Dutch people, like those in Amsterdam, helped the Boers fight.

So, this little statue is a reminder that even in big cities like Amsterdam, there are stories of brave soldiers from all over the world.
