The author of the new narrative, Lindsay Rechler, explained how the story came about: "I wanted to tell my children a relatable story — a story that would help them become familiar with their new everyday lives and within that story, touch upon what was happening in the outside world."
The book is intended to help kids understand why the quarantine is happening, why social distancing is important, and how we are all living a new normal. Hopefully, it will help kids better navigate the pandemic and learn more about the state of the world.
