Description
From squishy hands and squishy toes, Covid Monster is causing problems wherever he goes. The children of the world cannot play in playgrounds or visit their grandparents and they cannot wait for Covid Monster’s Mum to call him back home.
This is Marguerite Tonery’s first picture book, who as a psychologist, supports children not to internalise what’s happening in the pandemic world. It’s a book that tells children they did nothing wrong and it is not because of them that they are not allowed to see their grandparents, play with their friends and do all the fun things they love.
Reviews:
“It’s a sweet book about a family and their children who want to play with their friends, see their grandparents, and miss doing the fun things like going to the playground.
It’s a very cute book to help children not be afraid! And I love the illustrations!!”

“This book is perfect to explain to kids why and how Covid is affecting their lives. My daughter seems to now fully understand why she has to act the way she has to because of the virus. She liked it so much that I read the story twice the first time we sat down to read it!”

“This is definitely the cutest version of this virus I’ve seen! I really like the idea behind this book. It gives younger ones a bit of an easier time making sense of why we wash our hands or stay inside etc without getting into explaining germs or more of the complexities they might not get”
