Gr 2–3—This is a timely and important guide for children navigating life during the COVID-19 pandemic. Topics include helping others, coping with changes, virtual learning, and staying connected. This series does a wonderful job of addressing children's concerns and giving them opportunities to manage them, whether it be through exercise and creative pursuits or charity work and community involvement. Pages feature bold colors and large images of life during the pandemic. Extension activities are peppered throughout the text with discussion topics, craft ideas, and creative-thinking exercises. Back matter includes a glossary, resource list, and index. While the vocabulary words appear daunting, they are terms that children have probably heard many times during the pandemic. VERDICT This series manages to speak directly about the pandemic without seeming bleak and out of control. Children will understand that good is also happening and they can be a part of it. The stress-management skills will benefit readers long after the pandemic ends.
