The-Tale-of-a-Regular-Kid-Handling-Irregular-Times

This book has been one of my most rewarding personal projects. As a retired language arts teacher and a present writing tutor, I have always loved the creative writing process. When the current coronavirus crisis began several months ago in China, it immediately touched my heart especially because the young students I privately tutor all have parents who immigrated here from China within the past ten years. All of them were very concerned and confused by this dangerous disease, and those feelings only escalated as it began to spread here. Because of my passion for writing, several of my students' parents asked me to write a book to help assuage their fears and the growing fears of many other young children throughout the world. Right away, I began to do so and decided to paint my own illustrations since I had recently revived my childhood love of watercolor. This was a huge challenge for me to undertake, but I was motivated by the growing need for such a book and the encouragement of my students, friends, and family.. After I had nearly completed my book, a friend of my daughter's told me about this contest with the knowledge I had been writing just such a book. The coincidence was amazing, so I decided I must enter it in this contest immediately. I am not familiar with many of the technical requirements such as GitHub, but I have done my best to enter it correctly. I have had requests from numerous teachers and parents for a copy of my book since my children posted an announcement of my endeavor on facebook. The response has been overwhelming. I hope you enjoy my work also, and my book wins this contest in order to offer solace and comfort to a larger number of children than I could ever reach on my own. Thank you very much, Rosalyn Liberman
