Corona: The virus, explained for children

How do I explain to my children what the coronavirus does to us? Why can they no longer go to the kindergarten or to school? Why can they no longer see their grandparents? What can they do to protect themselves and others? This booklet is providing comprehensible answers-also thanks to the clever illustrations. The former Federal Councillor Doris Leuthard sums it up: 'A valuable little book for young and old-also a wonderful explanatory aid for parents.'

Priska Wallimann, born 1972, works as a graphic designer for the Blick Group. She describes the view on her work as visual journalism. A combination of research, drawing and writing. In her spare time, she likes to draw and to take pictures-preferably on her travels through France. The idea to the story 'Corona: The virus, explained for children' was born within the first days in the home office of the corona crisis. Marcel Aerni, born in 1962, is a fulltime graphic artist of the Blick Group. He works with brushes and pen, but also with all the options that the digital age is offering. He likes to go for long hikes, the drawing in nature and loves to spend the evenings by playing the guitar. He is married and has two grown-up children.
