(English) Coronavirus Isn’t a Prince (or Princess)
Coronavirus isn’t a Prince (or Princess). This children’s book dives into the mind of a seven-year-old boy. The story explores the symptoms of Coronavirus and how a child might be interpreting having to stay at home. He talks about new routines and cleaning habits, and even new challenges: how to wash your hands properly while singing your favorite song. Using his imagination (and eyes), the child shares the feeling of giving a round of applause for health-workers through his window. He pictures Coronavirus in a castle, also not having to go to school. For him, Coronavirus is someone new that has come into our lives, someone the grown-ups can’t stop talking about.

Don’t touch your mouth, nose, <strong>or</strong> eyes.<br />
If you do, you’ll lose a point f<strong>or</strong> your supersnack!<br />

When you cough <strong>or</strong> sneeze, cover your mouth with the<br />
