What is coronavirus, and why is everyone talking about it?

Engagingly illustrated by Axel Scheffler, this approachable and timely book, now available for the first time in print paperback, helps answer these questions and many more. Fully updated, it provides clear explanations about COVID-19 and its effects – both from a health perspective and the impact it has on a family’s day-to-day life. With input from expert consultant Professor Graham Medley of the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, as well as advice from teachers and child psychologists, this is a practical and informative resource to help explain the changes we are currently all experiencing. £1 from the sale of every book will be donated to NHS Charities Together.

I liked how it reminded me of when covid was; when we were in lockdown, how we had to stay at home. It was very informative as it gave me lots of information about coronavirus. The book had lots of illustrations in it which also helped me to work out what was happening more. I really enjoyed this book.

I rate this amazing book 5 stars because it tells children and adults what the coronavirus is and has information in the book about it.In the book its says places are closed because of it and that you need to was your hands because if you havent washed your hands and you touch your face such as your mouth, nose and eyes it can get inside your body. Its so good i recomend everyone should read it and enjoy it. #StaySafe
