Synopsis

 

Masks On is the fifth book in this series.

Mommy goes shopping and comes home with a surprise for Aleksa and Ari – their very own facemasks. As the girls learn how to wear masks, they also learn how their world is changing and how they will see facemasks in many more places as they go to school this fall.

 

 

 

 

Review

 

This book is geared towards younger children to share the importance of wearing a mask in these times and why it is important. It also deals with the fears of children wondering if their friends will know who they are and if their teachers will know they are smiling.

It also explores that some career fields wear masks on a regular basis and that this is designed to help slow down the spread of virus germs.

I thought this was written at a level that any young child will understand the importance of masks and to not be afraid of the masks. The illustrations are colorful and depict the story being told. I think this would make a good book to be read to young children while discussing masks and germs.

We give it 5 paws up!
