During the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, many young children are learning to experience what it's like to wear a facial mask. Since facial masks can be made with many designs and out of many materials, it's no wonder why children might be frightened or insecure when they see them on people.
Parents want to protect their children by providing a mask, however, many times it's easier said than done to try to have a child not be scared to wear one or understand why they need one when they leave the house.
This story provides a way to make light of a pensive necessity. It introduces "Mask" as a friend and shares the idea that we are all in this together. This book introduces a commonality that all of us are safe when we wear a mask and that being protected, even in a small way, is beneficial to everyone!
