What is coronavirus? How do you catch it? What happens if you do?

We've put together a free information book explaining coronavirus to children, illustrated by Axel Scheffler, and with expert input from @GrahamMedley.

You can read the free book here: https://t.co/NrxcFbSjjU

- Is it possible that Fausto survived?
- How did you paint the waves?

Hi @OliverJeffers - our 4th Graders wanted to share what they loved about #TheFateofFausto:
