Previous humanitarian emergencies have shown us how vital it is to address the fears & anxieties of young people when life as they know it gets turned upside down. We just launched a story book to help children understand & come to terms with #COVID19: http://bit.ly/2VrqOw3 
We hope that this beautifully-illustrated book will help children understand what they can do to stay positive & keep safe during #COVID19.
The initiative has been established by a collaboration of over 50 organizations incl: @WHO, @UNICEF, @Refugees, @ifrc, @save_children.
I am using the opportunity to thank @CressidaCowell for joining the #ReadTheWorld initiative and helping bring both joy to the days of young people around the world with your ‘How to Train Your Dragon' readings & advice to protect them from #COVID19.
