"The Covid-19 virus changed the world and made daily life much more challenging. This book tells the true stories of what kids around the world did to help others. From making 3-D printed medical equipment to food bank fundraising, to a neighbourhood joke stand, to creating a semi-automatic hand-washing machine, these kids made a difference in their communities. The book features 12 kids from around the world, along with photos and sidebars about other things kids have done during Covid-19."--
