This is such a great book for kids to show them appreciation for what they have done through lockdowns.
I am a mum of small children and I loved showing them that being locked down is hard, but that they are amazing for doing what we need to in order to keep everyone safe. It makes them feel less alone in lockdown too, and shows we are all working towards the same goal together.
