About this title

Synopsis

★The face-mask only version of The Safe Return.★

It’s a topsy-turvy world that children live in today, but the adventures must safely return.

This fast-paced book takes kids through the ups and downs of a balance bike ride with friends. A stuffed bunny is temporarily lost, but a community is found. The book reinforces the joys and freedoms of childhood and advocates for a safe return to fun.

Perfect for Covid-19 and to normalize the wearing of masks.

The Safe Return is a collaboration between the authors of last year’s standout body-positivity children’s book We Toot and the illustrator of the iconic Women’s March 2017 New Yorker cover (the Rosie Cover). The idea was sparked after the moms’ elementary-aged kids refused to wear masks earlier this spring.

(The Safe Return is also available in a flip-book version with face masks on or face masks off.)

Praise for the flip-book version of The Safe Return:

"A book that will stay in your collection long after the pandemic ends. Beautiful art with a message of hope and perseverance." ★ Mike Rawls, The Book Wrangler, @thebookwrangler on Instagram, School Librarian

"A book that helps normalize mask wearing for children during the pandemic, while showing them they do not have to miss out on the fun." ★ @Betty_Books on Instagram, School Librarian

“The book that every kid needs right now.” ★ Courtney Jones, @Support-A-Teach, founder of @ClearTheListOrg and #ClearTheList, Educator

"I highly recommend that all parents read The Safe Return to their children during this challenging time. But the story and art will resonate long over the current crisis is over." ★ Kim Campbell, Head of Youth Services at South Portland Public Library
