My Review:
I love this cute little story! I think masks can be scary for little children because they do not understand why some people chose to wear them. I think the author does a great job of explaining why we wear masks and what the coronavirus is. She gives the need to know in a way for our littlest ones to be able to understand. I appreciate the inclusion of different animals and the characters will be a delight to the ones reading the book. I highly recommend this book to parents and caregivers alike. It does not matter which side of the mask you are on, this book does an excellent job of explaining why people are wearing them, which will be helpful to all children.
Thank you to Net Galley and Books Go Social for the opportunity to read this book. I was not required to give a positive review, but was happy to do so. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Thank you so much for this book review!
ReplyDeleteIt is lovely to read that you liked the storyline and the photo- illustrations of our backyard friends.
It makes me so happy to find out that I could achieve the goal of writing this book. Thank you for your recommendation to parents and caregivers.
Lieve Snellings-I can see this being a classic in years to come! Hopefully we won't need masks for that long, but imagine people reading this book years from now, it will help them to understand what was going on in 2020.
DeleteYes, unfortunately, I am afraid we indeed have to wear our masks for some more months. But let us hope then it will become just a memory of this weird virus that spattered down all over the world. I hope that our masks can help us, together with other things like the vaccine, to get rid of this coronavirus. And I hope my book will help to do this a bit.
DeleteI really hope that it all helps. I am more than ready for things to go back to some kind of normal!
