Axel Scheffler has illustrated a digital book for primary school age children, free for anyone to read on screen or print out, about the coronavirus and the measures taken to control it. The book answers key questions in simple language appropriate for 5 to 9 year olds:

1. What is the coronavirus?
   • How do you catch the coronavirus?
   • What happens if you catch the coronavirus?
   • Why are people worried about catching the coronavirus?
   • Is there a cure for the coronavirus?
   • Why are some places we normally go to closed?
   • What can I do to help?
   • What’s going to happen next? 

With the help of a fantasy creature, Ario, “My Hero is You, How kids can fight COVID-19!” explains how children can protect themselves, their families and friends from coronavirus and how to manage difficult emotions when confronted with a new and rapidly changing reality.

Sally Nicholls' latest book, Staying Home, is about a family of raccoons going through a day in lockdown - no school, no nursery, no work - and explaining to the youngest members of the family how they're doing their part to save lives just by staying home!
