This timely, rhyming picture book highlights
the everyday heroes who make it possible for society to continue to function
during this time of crisis – including diverse representations of mail
carriers, teachers, grocery store workers, doctors, truck drivers, maintenance
staff, and caretakers. The story ends with a reminder that when children wash
their hands and follow pandemic guidelines, they themselves are heroes, too.
Written from the perspective of a young child spending time indoors, the story
focuses on the incredible individuals who continue to contribute their time,
effort, and resources to ensure that life can continue to go on. With
beautiful, hand-drawn illustrations offset with large-print text, this story is
a must-read for all ages.
Review: Who Are Our Heroes is an uplifiting reminder that all workers are necessary and to look for the helpers during a crisis. The message is simple and reminiscent of the children’s show Higglytown Heroes. There will always be others willing to serve their neighbors. A great read for families in the midst of the COVID pandemic.
About the Author:
Eliana Melmed, Author
Eliana is a senior at the
University of Chicago studying Public Policy with a minor in Media, Arts, and
Design. She’s loved reading and writing since she can remember and has
journaled nightly for almost ten years! In her free time, she likes making
lists in her bullet-journal and organizing things into small containers. When
she’s not walking backwards giving campus tours as a Junior Admissions
Counselor, you can find her working as an events and student life photographer,
preparing for the Moot Court oral advocacy competition, or fiddling around on
the violin. She hopes that her book inspires children and adults alike to spend
a little bit more time recognizing and thanking their heroes.
