When the world turned upside down / by K. Ibura. New York, NY : Scholastic Press, 2021. 275 pages ; 20 cm. What do you do when the world shuts down? Nobody expected a tiny little virus to change the whole world in such a big way, especially not Shayla, Liam, Ai, and Ben. But when school closes to keep everyone safe, their lives turn upside down. It is one thing to learn that the outside world isn't safe, but why does it seem that the virus is causing trouble inside their homes too? As they each struggle to adjust to life in quarantine, they discover they are not alone: their apartment building is full of people who need their help. Working together, they begin to see that there is power in numbers. When they cooperate, they can ease each other's challenges and help their neighbors through tough times. It's a lesson they'll need when protests explode in the streets. Soon, each friend has to decide what it means to be part of a community—and how much they're willing to do to make this world safer for everyone. Ages 8-12. 20221118. Epidemics Juvenile fiction.
