One morning in March 2020, Mom starts behaving very mysteriously: she is wearing a mask to go get groceries! What is going on here? Why would she put on a mask just to leave the house? The inquisitive young Detective Dillard is on the case! She interviews her family to find clues that will help her understand this strange new article of clothing and get to the bottom of the mystery that surrounds it. The Day the Masks Went On tells a funny, must-read story about the early days of a modern-day global pandemic, from a child's perspective. As Dillard works to solve for unknowns, young readers will see themselves reflected back in her awe and uncertainty. In the end, discovering the meaning of the mask is not as important as learning that we can face difficult times and adapt to new situations by seeking to understand. The young detective was also reminded of the power of teamwork and a loving and supportive family.
