  • "Keeping Friends Healthy REALLY resonated with my 4-year old Owen. He was really having a hard time not being able to go to school. I credit this book with helping him understand why these changes were so important. When he wears his mask, he mentions that he's being a good friend like Norman!"

    K. Randall, Owen’s Mom
