"Jonas Salk was a kid who saw things differently, a kid who wanted to help make the world a better place… Ever meet a kid like that? Could that kid be YOU?"

"Fearing that polio could spread through water, communities closed swimming pools and beaches. Parents kept children away from movie theaters, sleepovers, and crowds. Everywhere, people wondered: Could polio be prevented? Could it be cured?"⁠⁠ From "The Polio Pioneer" by Linda Elovitz Marshall and Lisa Anchin. I bought this originally because we adore @lisa.anchin both as a human and an artist, and will buy anything she writes and/or illustrates. But my gosh, this book has been such a useful tool for talking about the current pandemic (which we call "The Bad Cold") with my 3yo. The similarities of how polio affected normal life in the first half of the 20th century are striking, and the book does a great job of explaining how vaccines work in a digestible way. ⁠⁠Going to post a couple more from this book in the days to come! ~⁠⁠ #thepoliopioneer #lindaelovitzmarshall #lisaanchin #jonassalk #vaccines #covid19 #picturebook #kidlit #childrensfiction #picturebookillustration #picturebooks #picturebookstagram #childrensbook #kidlitart #picturebooksofinstagram #alfredaknopf https://www.instagram.com/p/CN2i4q5nwdC/?igshid=im3qsn3iqf9q
