Four year-old Maeve explains what life was like before COVID-19 and then describes how everything has changed. Written by a grandmother and mother duo, this book uses examples from Maeve's day-to-day life with her mom and favorite stuffed animal. The story encourages young children and grown-ups to talk about how COVID-19 has impacted them and their feelings, and reminds children about all the people working to keep them safe and happy.
