Two new beautiful books have been published which allow you to examine the emotions and feelings children are experiencing just now.

The first looks at things that have been both lost and things that have been found due to Coronavirus.

Matilda and Theo Looking after our Lost and Found things in the time of Coronavirus. 

The second was written by a teacher to help his class come to terms with school shutdown, and to help families discuss the feelings this has brought on.
