Here's a book that provides children honest yet positive
information about Coronavirus (Covid-19). COVID-19 HELPERS gives
kids the facts of the pandemic, but also offers hope. Mr. Rogers
said that when things get scary, "Look for the helpers." Likewise,
this story reassures children and parents that many people from all
walks of life-including kids themselves-are helping to fight the
virus. In COVID-19 HELPERS, Kary Lee's beautiful illustrations and
Beth Bacon's clear, comforting words help children understand that
though they may feel isolated in these times, they are not alone.
In fact, by staying at home during the quarantine, kids are playing
an important role in helping to reduce the coronavirus infection
rate. This book helps parents, teachers, and librarians discuss
many issues of the global pandemic, including: School closures,
park closures, theater closures due to quarantine or
shelter-in-place policies Social distancing Wearing masks during
the pandemic Feelings of helplessness, isolation, and boredom
caused by social distancing policies Medical research to end the
pandemic Cancelled sporting events, cancelled birthday parties Plus
extra pages explaining: Facts about Covid-19 virus What kids can do
to avoid getting Covid-19 Even during the global pandemic,
communities everywhere have many helpers fighting this new disease,
including doctors, nurses, researchers, scientists, farmers, truck
drivers, garbage collectors, shopkeepers, postal workers,
government leaders, reporters, and even kids living in
shelter-in-place quarantines. This book is also available in a
Spanish language edition. It was selected by the Emory Global
health Institute as the winner of an international competition for
a children's book coping about COVID from over 250 entries.

It takes a lot of work to bring a panda cub into the world. They
are born with delicate pink skin, they’re unable to see, unable
to walk—and even unable to go to the bathroom without help!
It’s so much work that panda mamas can only take care of one cub
at a time. So when Zoo Atlanta’s beloved giant panda, Lun Lun,
surprised everyone by having twins, the zoo staff had to pitch in.
They made a plan to share parenting duties with Lun Lun. Every few
hours the zoo staff swapped the cubs between Lun Lun and their
workroom to make sure the cubs got equal time with mom. It was hard
work, and Lun Lun didn’t even know she had twins! The cubs ate
and slept, opened their eyes, and grew beautiful black and white
coats. Fans watching around the world submitted name ideas for the
cubs. Everyone cheered as the cubs took their first steps. As the
cubs grew larger and more independent, excitement grew about their
upcoming reunion. Would Lun Lun accept them when she finally met
them both? Luckily for Lun Lun, motherhood came naturally.
"Hilarious and subversive." —Kirkus G is determined to go first
in the alphabet, but does that mean reading will be destroyed? This
witty picture book about the order of the alphabet is
laugh-out-loud funny! When G wants to be first in the
alphabet song, A has a BIG problem! G can’t be first. Not today,
not tomorrow, and not next week. NEVER! A tells G if they change
the order of the alphabet song, no one will learn how to read, and
reading will be DESTROYED! Will reading be destroyed if G is first?
G is willing to find out! Filled with laugh-out-loud humor, Beth
Bacon and Karen Kane’s witty wordplay is perfectly paired with
Eric Barclay’s colorful characters. You’ll never sing the
alphabet song the same way again! Â
