Masks are everywhere. What do kids think about that? When Lucy finds out her mom is making her a special mask she's excited. Lucy loves masks! She dives into her toy box full of costumes and opens a world of imagination and make-believe adventure, far beyond the walls of her room. Of course, she doesn't realize that the mask her mom is making is not part of a costume but one that will keep her safe and make her a real-life superhero. This book is not a science lesson about germs and protection. It's a simple fun story that helps make mask-wearing more relatable and less scary. Parents and educators have found it to be a wonderful tool to start a conversation about germs, viruses, the pandemic, and what families have to do to keep themselves and others safe. For children heading to schools that will require them to wear masks, and for parents, grandparents and teachers looking for stories that give comfort and reassurance to kids about the changes around them, Lucy's Mask is a welcome addition to reading time. Lucy's Mask was a Finalist in the 2021 Next Generation Indie Book Awards.
Autorenporträt
Lisa Sirkis Thompson is a graphic designer, a former decorative painter, a writer and a co-owner of a small children's product business called Oh Bessie. Lucy's Mask was her first published picture book, although, as the mother of four children herself, surely not the first story she had created to comfort and delight young kids. She and her illustrator husband John wrote Lucy's Mask in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic to speak to young kids in a reassuring way about very serious issues like social isolation and personal protection. Since then, they both collaborated on Lucy's Quiet Day, the second in the Lucy Book Series. Lucy's Quiet Day finds Lucy without planned activities, and bored. But her vivid imagination takes hold when she wanders into her backyard, and finds that Nature can be anything but quiet. Lucy's Quiet Day encourages kids not only to take an interest in the natural world around them, but to find satisfaction and reward in alone time. And that's important for so many kids today who experience a busy, sometimes crowded schedule of activity.
