Author Janette A. Smith’s New Book, “Covid-19 and Me,” is a Charming Tale of a Young Girl Who Must Adapt to the Challenges of Living Through the Covid-19 Pandemic – PR.com

Longmont, CO, November 12, 2024 –(PR.com)– Janette A. Smith, a retired teacher with thirty-two years of experience as an educator, has completed her new book, “Covid-19 and Me”: a timely and compassionate children’s book that addresses the challenges faced by a young girl during the COVID-19 pandemic, exploring the emotional turmoil of virtual schooling, separation from friends, and the profound impact of pandemic-related changes on daily life.

A native of Memphis, Tennessee, author Janette A. Smith attended Wayne County Community College and Wayne State University, where she earned her Bachelor of Science degree in special education and her master’s degree in elementary education. After thirty-two years of teaching grades kindergarten through high school, Ms. Smith retired from the school system but remains a strong influence among her peers and young people. When not teaching or writing, Ms. Smith enjoys dancing, reading, decorating, doing interior design, shopping, walking, biking, horseback riding, cooking, and working with the children’s and senior’s ministries at her church. She is also an active community leader and consultant with organizations focused on youth development.

“This story focuses on a young girl who is very upset that she has to do virtual schooling from home with her parents and virtual direction from teachers,” writes Smith. “She does not like how her parents teach, and she misses her teachers, friends and classmates being in person.

“In this story, the author also provides solutions, alternatives and preventive methods to deal with the COVID-19 situation. The COVID-19 pandemic caused many deaths in children and adults. Further, it caused the closing of many businesses and schools and forced vast changes in the lives of everyone.”

Published by Page Publishing, Janette A. Smith’s engaging tale is a story about resilience and adaptation that will encourage young readers to find strength in adversity, to embrace change with courage, and to discover new ways to thrive despite the challenges of Covid-19. With vibrant artwork to help bring Smith’s tale to life, “Covid-19 and Me” will resonate with young readers with its gentle approach and reassuring message, making it an invaluable resource for parents, educators, and caregivers looking to support children’s emotional well-being during uncertain times.
