My husband, Oliver, and I love telling our young granddaughters imaginary stories. Mine are about a character named Camel and his antics in the meadow and forest. Oliver's stories are about Snatch Cat, a clever feline, who is usually caught up in one exciting adventure or another!
Since we're not often around our granddaughters now because of the pandemic, I decided to write them this story about their two favorite characters, Camel and Snatch Cat, and the virus going around.
And even though the characters are imaginary, the story includes many facts young children, and all of us, are learning and living with on a daily basis. Highlights include how the virus spreads, what it means to practice social distancing, the importance of wearing a mask, and getting the vaccine that will help get this pandemic under control.
Our granddaughters have enjoyed this latest venture of Camel, Snatch Cat and their friends, and having it read to them! Hopefully, your young children delight in meeting these characters and finding out all that takes place in What's Going On Out There?
¿ As you go through the story together, you'll discover that each chapter includes something fun and interactive for the children to do. So enjoy the journey ahead: reading, discussing, learning and doing!
