In this picture book, readers are introduced to all sorts of professionals and other people who wear masks in their daily lives and are reminded that wearing a mask to limit the spread of germs is an act of kindness.
Marla Lesage is a registered nurse who loves to tell stories, both real and imagined, through urban sketching, painting, illustration and words. Her art can be found in private collections in Canada, the United States and Australia, and her debut picture book, Pirate Year Round, published in 2019. We Wear Masks was inspired by a trip Marla took with her mask-wearing children to a historic farm where they discovered an excellent benefit to wearing masks--blocking out stinky smells! Marla lives near Fredericton, New Brunswick.
