Keke's Super-Strong Double Hugs - Hardcover
by Elizabeth McChesney (Author), Judy Schiffman (Author), Steve Musgrave (Illustrator)
Keke loves her family-Mom; Dad; her big brother, Noah; and Clyde, their unruly dog. They all live together in an apartment that reaches high into the sky. They love to be out on the go, getting fro-yo, visiting the library, taking Clyde to the dog park, going for walks, and visiting their grandmas at their retirement home. And wherever they go, Keke makes everyone happy with her Keke Super-Strong Double Hugs.
But then one day, Keke and her family aren't allowed to go out anymore-no getting fro-yo, no going to the library, and no visiting her grandmas. There is a pandemic happening, with lots of people getting sick and some even dying. So everyone must stay home to stay safe. Keke feels scared and angry sometimes as the pandemic stays and stays. Then she has an idea: What if the family could do fun things, just like they used to do, while also staying home? Together Keke's family can find ways to enjoy themselves while also staying safe.
In this children's story, one little girl and her family deal with having to stay home during the COVID-19 pandemic and discover new ways of doing things together.
