The questions address topics such as what coronavirus looks like, who is helping with this disease, and how people can stay healthy. Written in short sentences, the answers are <strong>concise, straightforward, and supportive</strong>. On a page discussing 'who is helping, ' kids are encouraged to draw pictures for 'Everyday Heroes, ' such as grocery store workers and mail carriers. A typical double-page spread includes two colorful photos that might feature children, parents, and/or doctors and nurses on the job, along with an inserted image of a familiar Sesame Street Muppet, who comments on the topic at hand in a speech balloon. Within a discussion of connecting with friends when playdates are not an option, Snuffleupagus adds, 'I call my friend Bird and we sing songs together.' <strong>The combination of facts and familiar characters makes this a reassuring choice for young children.</strong>--<em>Booklist</em></p>-- "Journal" (2/15/2021 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><p>This colorful picture book provides an opportunity to discuss and clarify some of the big issues surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.
