Be a Hero

By Katherine Hurewitz

School changed a lot because of Covid-19. And, who knows, things could just keep on changing. This book's sweet young narrator takes readers through some of the changes brought about by Covid-19, and models language for how kids can share their feelings about the way things changed and more changes to come. Teachers, parents and caregivers can read Be a Hero, an illustrated picture book for Pre-K through 2nd grade, to kids who are back in school to remind them that their communities are full of people working to keep everyone safe and healthy. But, Be a Hero goes further, as the story helps young children understand they are not just following rules made by someone else. Instead, they each have a role in keeping their communities safe - an empowering message meant to help young readers see themselves as part of the solution. Illustrated by award-winning illustrating duo, Chantelle and Burgen Thorne.
