The new Hunger Games novel, Sunrise on the Reaping, addresses the connection between Katniss Everdeen and a past District 12 tribute, Maysilee Donner, through a piece of famous iconography.

Maysilee was the original owner of the mockingjay pin and a friend of Katniss' mother. Her niece and the mayor's daughter, Madge Undersee, gave Katniss the mockingjay pin in book one.
