Publisher's Summary

Parents are excited about the COVID-19 vaccine. What do children think about that? 

When a Shot Meant a Lot is a children’s book about the long-awaited end of the COVID-19 pandemic. After being separated for such a long time, will the vaccine bring our loved ones back together? A story of love and togetherness, even when we’re apart. Includes practical tips for parents to stay safe as life returns to normal. 

About the story:

The coronavirus pandemic unfolds through a child's eyes, emphasizing confusion about the arrival of the vaccine. Don’t shots hurt? Despite the parents’ best efforts, the child doesn’t understand why the shot is good news: 

The newscaster says, “The shot’s on its way!” Her tone seems so joyful, but I feel afraid.

I don't like shots. They feel scary to me. Why in the world would I cheer a vaccine?

It’s not until the impact of the vaccine is personal that it finally makes sense! 

When a Shot Meant a Lot is for parents who support vaccinations and are looking for tools to discuss the experience with their young children. This book is not a science lesson about germs and protection. It’s a tender story for parents to start a conversation about what the vaccine has to offer: a return to normal.
