C'RONA Pandemic Comics
C'RONA Pandemic Comics features three comic stories written for youth, accompanied by essays about the COVID-19 pandemic. The three stories feature the COVID-19 virus, wildlife and viruses, and the impact of the pandemic on Tribal communities.
C'RONA Pandemic Comics is a collection of short comics and essays developed to help youth understand the complexities of living through a viral pandemic. Each focuses on a different theme: the biology of the COVID-19 virus; the relationship of wild animals, particularly bats, to the pandemic; and the impact of the pandemic on tribal communities. Created by a group of artists, educators, tribe members, and scientists, this comic book provides an engaging way to learn about the COVID-19 pandemic from a cast of fictional characters-a parrot, a fox, a goat, a bat, a mouse, a coyote, and a ghost.
