With many parents are carers struggling to explain the current extraordinary situation to children, many of whom are frightened and confused. We thought the best thing to do was to let everyone know about this free book that provides information and most importantly reassurance to 5 to 9 year olds. Parents may be familiar with the illustrator Axel Scheffler who illustrated The Gruffalo.

The book answers key questions in simple language appropriate for 5 to 9 year olds:

• 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?

This pandemic is changing children's lives across the globe and will have a lasting impact on us all. This book really helps children understand what is going on and is an important step in helping them cope with what we are all going through.

We really think it is a nice thing for children to see characters who they know, relating to this situation that they don’t understand.

Stay safe from the Alexanders team.
