Featured Reviews

Thank you netgalley for providing an e-galley for review of Understanding Coronaviruses by Connie Goldsmith. I was impressed with this title. It presented the facts of the coronavirus pandemic as a constantly changing situation without bias. There are definitions, works cited, internet sites and other works of interest. This is written at an appropriate level for higher grades of juvenile and teen readers.
