A timely book for the littles who may be curious about just what a virus is. This picture book follows a virus as it invades a cell in a virus and discusses how enzymes and antibodies get involved as the body tries to fend off the virus. I read this book with my 6 year old and he was able to follow along. There were tons of colorful illustrations and the language was appropriate for young kids, even if they may not have ever heard of enzymes or antibodies before.

Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group – words & pictures for an advance reader copy in exchange for an honest review.

I think that it's absolutely vital that we really help children to understand what's going on in the world right now, and how they can get involved in a solution to the problem, in this case Coronavirus. This book is incredibly helpful and educational and I really hope that a lot of children get their hands on this book as it's a very important book for children.

What a delightful relevant book for this time in history. The colorful illustrations helped bring forth the complicated topic of viruses. My only wish is that some of the illustrated comparisons (like antibodies being like little workers) would have been verbalized in the writing as well as the pictures.

Thank you NetGalley for the Advance Review Copy of Stop that Virus!

I read this book with my five year old nanny kid. The book is written for a younger audience but we had fun reading it together. I love board books which are not only colorful but that teach something as well. The illustrations in Stop that Virus! are fantastic. The illustrations' body languages and emotions make it a great book for an early reader. They could "read" the story without needing to understand the text.

I really enjoyed this book and I look forward to sharing it with fellow nannies and their young charges.

Even the youngest children listen to what the adults around them say. So, no doubt, they have been hearing the word virus. This title with its lively illustrations will be welcomed by families. It helps young children to understand how the body fights a virus and how a person gets better.

This title will offer reassurance to many children while a few might need to understand that these small figures that look somewhat like people are not really inside them. All will know that their bodies work to keep them safe and healthy

Many thanks to NetGalley for this title. All opinions are my own.

This is an adorable and fun read which helps educate kids on what a virus really is! The art is wonderful and quite interactive. I think it's a great read for kids who are more curious about staying safe!

A basic overview of viruses for young children; it’s definitely topical and explains it an easy, lighthearted way. The illustrations are good too but nothing inventive here.

What a great book!! This book is perfect for teaching about viruses in a primary health class. It explains it so well and will make it easy for young children to understand how viruses work. The illustrations are so well done and complement the story perfectly.

I received an advance copy of, Stop that Virus! This is a cute book for kids. It shows them what a virus is, and what it does to their body. The pictures are great.

In the worlds current climate this is a lovely little book. A clever way to help children understand in a simplified way what viruses do. Colourful and attention grabbing.
The antibodies are shown defeating the virus. However, to be used as more of an education tool. It would have been brilliant if we could have also gotten the message across that we can help the antibodies by washing our hands etc.
Overall though a good educational book for the younger readers.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for the ARC in return for an honest review.

Thank you netgalley for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Enjoyed reading this storybook about what happens when a virus attacks the body. Simple and easy to understand.

This is such a cute little book for youngsters (pre-school and early primary) to teach them about how a virus attacks the body and how the body reacts. This is important biology and obviously relevant just now. However I felt it could have more information about how to prevent a virus i.e. handwashing etc. The illustrations were really well done and quite clever.

ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE. 5 stars. Timely book on viruses for the youngest of readers. Great illustrations, great message, minimal text with maximum impact.

I got this on Netgalley in exchange for an honest review!
I REALLY liked this one! This comes out at the perfect time, with all the coronavirus stuff going on atm! I love the drawing of the virus and antibodies and enzymes, and I feel like it captures the key information about how the body fights viruses without being too complicated or too long / boring! This would be useful to use in the Primary School natural science classroom!

Thank you NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for the opportunity to read in exchange for an honest review. What an awesome book! It has great illustrations that work with the story to explain easily to a child what happens when we catch a virus and how our bodies react to fight.. a book I will share with my granddaughter when she is sick.. Great book.

A very nice and simple book about viruses and our bodies way of dealing with them. I read this with my son and it really helped him to understand that our bodies are always protecting us, great little book

This was a cute little book. I think it is appropriate for preschool through second grade. The pictures are colorful and engaging.

A simple but useful book that explains to young children about what a virus is and how the body fights it

This book was received as an ARC from Quarto Publishing Group – words & pictures in exchange for an honest review. Opinions and thoughts expressed in this review are completely my own.

This book was adorable to the extreme. Love the bold drawings of all the characters and the play on enzymes and antibodies was too hysterical. This will be a great book for a storytime and in the classrooms of the young grades and they will be so impressed of the story and drawings. This could not have come at a better time and it's so exciting to see another way for children to learn about the importance of protecting yourself from those pesky, harmful viruses and having fun while doing it.

We will consider adding this title to our JNon-Fiction collection at our library. That is why we give this book 5 stars.

This is a brilliantly informative book that will be perfect for young children and parents or teachers wanting to teach their children about the virus
