An illustrated book about a young girl, Loosie demonstrating kindness to a street vendor. This children's book was written during the 2019/2020 grim times of COVID-19. Being confined in the house involuntarily pushed me to find ways to somehow distract and comfort myself with something positive. Perhaps, the book was a subconscious plea for brighter times. It was a sense of comfort and gave me something to look forward to.
