New children’s book tackles importance of hand washing, preventing spread of diseases

Different diseases pop up and surround us every day, but children are more susceptible to them, especially when proper hand washing techniques are not enforced. In “I Wash My Hands! A Child’s Guide to Hand Washing” (ISBN 1466460660), K. R. Roberts informs children on the benefits of washing your hands.

Roberts uses 5-year-old Kriss to get her point across of why children should always wash their hands. Filled with illustrations, the young girl takes her peers on a journey through the world of germs, diseases and cleanliness.

Aunt Audrey is a very neat, clean educated influential woman, and it can be shown in how she treats herself and her home. Her niece Kriss wants to be just like her when she grows up.

Aunt Audrey continuously sets examples for her niece on how to be clean and healthy. She shows her that a clean and healthy life starts with knowing how to properly wash one’s hands. The hand washing instructions and techniques Aunt Audrey gives Kriss stay with her every day as she remembers when and how to wash her hands. Soon, the young girl is passing the knowledge of how to be great hand washer to her friends.

Roberts wants children and parents to use this as an introduction into hand washing. She believes that by instructing young children on how to properly wash their hands, they will be more likely to remember to do so.

“In this day and time there so many different diseases amongst us,” Roberts says. “My work uses a multicultural approach to teach both children and adults to get in the practice of developing good hygiene habits so we can prevent the spread of disease to ourselves and one another.”

“I Wash My Hands! A Child’s Guide to Hand Washing” is available for sale online at Amazon.com and other channels.
