From the author As parents, it seems like we always have to be reminding our children of some dos or don’ts: “Did you wash your hands?” “Don’t bite your nails!” ”Eat everything on your plate! (Yes, the vegetables too!)” “Take a shower!” “Brush your teeth!” So the idea for this book came out, to serve as a reminder of those messages we must repeat a thousand times before they come across. Before 2020, most small kids caught colds without giving them too much thought. But the world pandemic has brought awareness to the youngest minds, so this book aims at empowering the children, showing them that there are things they can actually do to stay healthy longer. When children know of what they can do, they get some sense of control and anxiety can be reduced. Let children accompany Monster as he learns about how to keep germs at bay and get some great healthy habits that kids can carry on throughout their lives! From the publisher Beautiful illustrations that kids will love. Flowing rhymes – ideal for building vocabulary and helping children with phonetics and reading.
