Børn og unge: personlige og sociale emner: at leve med sygdom og kroniske tilstande

Franka frygter meteornedslag, meningitis, kødædende bakterier, jordfaldshuller og at være blevet gjort gravid af gymnasiets fuckboy, Theo. Hun fortæller ingen om sine katastrofetanker, men forsøger i stedet at få ro på ved at føre et slags katalog over dem. Nogle gange føler hun sig som den snegl, hendes far har fortalt om, Ensomme Georg, det sidste eksemplar af sin art. Men så er der heldigvis Sander, 2. g’er og lægesøn, som Franka fantaserer om at blive reddet af. Og muligvis en puma på fri fod i lokalområdet. Kathrine Assels debuterede i 2008 med romanen Snydeæg. Hun har siden skrevet en lang række bøger for både børn, unge og voksne. Blandt andre YA-romanen Tarantino Roadtrip samt Mester Ester, der modtog Kulturministeriets Børnebogspris.

"Mother and daughter coauthors, both descendants of their subject, trace the course of Wu's career. . . . Chockablock with timely themes and connections to recent world-shaking events." --Kirkus Reviews More than a hundred years before Covid, a deadly pneumonic plague threatened to sweep through Northeast China. Medical experts were summoned to help contain it--among them Wu Lien-teh, who had overcome hurdles to be a doctor since his boyhood in Malaysia. Unlike others, Dr. Wu deduced that the disease was spread through airborne bacteria and advocated for quarantines and other measures familiar to readers today, including the use of a face covering he designed from layers of cloth and gauze: the first version of the N95 mask. Wu Lien-teh faced ridicule and discrimination, but his trailblazing methods prevailed: the 1910 Manchurian plague was vanquished in four months, and his invention continues to keep us safe now. Masked Hero, written by Dr. Wu Lien-teh's great-granddaughter Shan Woo Liu and charmingly illustrated by Lisa Wee, celebrates the little-known history of the N95 mask and the hero who first devised it. Back matter, including an author's note and a time line, sheds further light on the ever-relevant past, encouraging budding scientists to think bravely--and remember the small acts we all can perform to keep our communities safe.
