            Thank you @Kim-Hunter and @eriberart !

            I thought it may be better to choose an animal as the main character, since it affects so many children, of many different countries. I will also add some color.

                Agreed! Animal character seems very versatile! Great idea! ❤

                  This is so good. Keep going with it.

                  We are listening to a norwegian audio book for kids about quarantine time. It helps a lot for my toddler to understand what is going on. She started saying things like " ok, so when the sickness is over, and we are not in quarantine anymore, then we can go to the shop to buy some fish". She is turning 3 soon. I am impressed by how stories can help kids understanding difficult situations like this.

                  The audio book we listened, the main character is a speckled bear.

                    Thank you @Kim-Hunter and @Daisy !
                    That sounds very good @xin-li ! We don't have something like that in our own language yet. I will print my story for my child and read it together :).
                    My only concern is that even though the illustrations are simple, it still takes a lot of time to mover forward.
                    It's still quite the challenge, although they are fairly simple. It's a great practice for character consistency! The second one was a lot harder to draw and I feel like it does not look like the first one 100%.

                    I finished 2 pages.

                          I think they are fine. The facial expression is perfect. My strength is story and you are good there too.
