The pandemic has been a rollercoaster of physical, emotional and social challenges that have left children and families afraid and exhausted. <\/span>Many children are challenged by learning online, feeling stuck inside, bored or struggling with transitions and change. Many of these struggles are unfamiliar and frustrating. But there is reason for hope.<\/span><\/p>\n
$\"\"$ <\/p>\n
Within the illustrations, I<\/span> wanted kids to know that generations who came before them found a way to overcome incredible struggles and challenges and they can too.<\/span><\/p>\n
$\"\"$ <\/p>\n
How do we learn from the past? How can we as individuals, as community support children and families to face the challenges of life?<\/span><\/p>\n
$\"\"$ <\/p>\n
With comforting, encouraging words and art, I hope our book will empower children and families. To be uplifting and let kids know that they have the creativity it takes to imagine a brighter world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
