After college, she landed a job as an art director because she liked the bossy part. She took a painting class and won a book illustration award. Five books and a Moms Choice award later, shes never looked back. Kary lives in Seattle with her husband Charles and a backyard bunny.

Inspired by his grandchildrens questions about the pandemic, Dr. Jeffrey Koplan, the Director of EGHI and Vice President for Global Health at Emory University, believed childrens books could provide answers. So EGHI held an ebook competition. 260 stories were submitted. Covid-19 Helpers is the winning book. Review "COVID-19 Helpers is a definite must-have and must-read for the people who are struggling during this crisis.The book is very useful and helpful for parents, teachers, and librarians who seek to discuss the many issues of a global pandemic. Children will be able to understand why school closures, park closures, and theater closures are vital in keeping the community safe and healthy.The illustrated book also tackles social distancing guidelines and the importance of wearing a face mask or covering during the pandemic. Bacon and Lee also offer insight and a solution to the feeling of helplessness, isolation, and boredom caused by restrictive shelter-in-place policies.The COVID-19 Helpers covers all bases and features the latest medical research that discusses the steps that people should take to see the end of the pandemic. It also talks about the various sporting events that have been moved or cancelled as well as birthday party celebrations that have been postponed.The book ends with facts every child and adult should know about the global health threat and what young kids can do to avoid contracting the virus. Best of all, it highlights the efforts communities, medical workers, farmers, shopkeepers, and other front liners everywhere are doing during the coronavirus lockdown." —Danielle Ong, Latin Post"Kid-friendly text pairs with playful illustrations to gently inform and reassure children experiencing activity restriction due to COVID-19. A reassuring, child-friendly explanation of COVID-19 and the many ways people, including kids, are helping to keep us all safe."—Laurie Thompson, author of Be A Changemaker"In times of crisis, children may feel helpless. They feel as if they have no power to effect change. Covid-19 Helpers shows kids that they can be part of the solution." —Laurie Wallmark, author of Numbers in Motion: Sophie Kowalevski, Queen of Mathematics"Kids and those who love them will feel their hearts give a proud and hopeful thump thump thump as they read about these Covid-19 helpers—including kids, themselves." —Jane Kurtz, author of Planet Jupiter"Informative and sensitive book about caring for ourselves and the world in a global pandemic era." —Suma Subrahamian, contributing author of The Hero Next Door Promotional •eGalleys available•National print and online media campaign•Regional author and illustrator tour•Focus on Emory University healthcare systems and related health institutions•Social media campaign Long Description In early spring, Emory Global Health Initiative sponsored a contest for a childrens eBook about COVID. COVID-19 Helpers was awarded the prize from over 250 entries. Since that time, the authors, with the blessing of EGHI, have produced the book via Ingram POD program and offered the book in Spanish (and also Indonesian). The book has sold briskly, and the authors asked Blair to take over the publication of the books. Its easy to see why the book has done so well with so little distribution support: of all the COVID childrens books, it is the most straightforward. The authors have managed to tell the truth about the coronavirus without making it scary or dour. They have focused on what kids--and others--can do to combat the virus and thrive during this time.
