The Day the Virus Came

A book written after the first Lockdown when the whole world experienced a new extraordinary illness called Coronavirus. It was a serious time for all. For two young children as for all children throughout the world, their situation changed unbelievably as schools were closed for months. The Prime Minister of England, Mr Johnson instructed parents and grandparents to Home School children. As those that could, were having to work from home, the job of homeschooling fell much to grandparents. Luckily for Verity and Austin,(Baba) grandma had been a primary school teacher and Headteacher, hence to engage interest for a 5 year old and 3 year old, theme weeks were introduced to make a strange happening an exciting, fun, learning experience. This book is an synopsis and even an historical account of that time. Many may want to forget that time but for the children growing up through this period they will remember, as it was a fair chunk of their childhood. So seeing that time through the eyes of young infants perhaps is a better way to remember.
