Check out this free children’s e-book about COVID in Hong Kong

As parents, we’ve all used books as a way to talk about serious issues with our kids. From potty training to going to school, books are a fantastic way to kick start conversations. To help little ones understand COVID-19 and the impact it has on their daily lives, Hong Kong Free Press has launched a free online book, Bobby Baboon and the Invisible Buggies. It helps children make sense of the pandemic through beautiful illustrations from local artist Kitty Wong, and a fun educational tale written by primary teacher, Daniel Levia. The story follows Bobby the Baboon on his journey with friend Owl, and gives parents the space to bring up topics such as mental health, social distancing, and wearing masks. The book is available to download for free in English and Chinese from the HKFP website.
