The coronavirus pandemic hit Sophia Nesamoney’s family circle hard.
Several of his older parents in India died of the disease, a tragedy that shook his family.
“His death had a significant effect on my grandparents and my mother,” Nesamoney said. “Our prolonged circle of relatives in India has its own hospital, so it was devastating because many of us we enjoy are doctors and therefore sometimes have smart access to the installed fitness systems. “
But in the face of tragedy, Nesamoney, along with his brother Sean, felt the need to do something.
“We have noticed that this has an effect on the older generation of our family. Actually, it was hard to deal with that. So we’re looking to do anything that could help families. Also in the United States, many families locate It’s hard to know if it’s a loss, family members or economic instability,” he said.
What came next was the spark of an artistic project: Sophía, a Stanford University student who read biology and artistic writing, and Sean, a Sophoze from Menlo School and a virtual artist, began working on a book.
“We try to do anything that children, especially young children,” Nesamoney said. “There’s a lot of news that other people our age can perceive and read, but for young children, not much data is available. “
After a few weeks of work, Atherton’s citizen couple had produced “CORONAvirus ABC”. The 29-page children’s eBook explains the pandemic to young children, navigating the alphabet and brightly colored cartoons. “A is for ‘arms’,” says the first page of the e-book. “For you and your friends, be sure to stay two arms or six feet away.
At first, they sent only one copy of the eebook to their former Phillips Brooks school in Menlo Park, but the school principal enjoyed the eebook and passed it on to a cohort from 50 other schools. “It began to spread quickly, ” said Nesamoney.
As the eeebook rumor spread in the community, parents came in with a new demand: translating the eeebook into other languages. With friends and family, they translated the eeebook into Spanish, French, Dutch, Korean and 3 of the languages spoken in India.
From there, he opened it all over the world.
With the help of its website, HowtoCoronavirus. co, programs began to come from elementary schools and youth systems around the world. Since then, the “ABC of the coronavirus” has landed in Nepal, France, India, Spain, Chile, Mexico and the Netherlands.
Then, an exciting turning point: the American India Foundation, a US-based nonprofit, is a us-based organization. But it’s not the first time Supporting progress in India has incorporated “Coronavirus ABC” into its calendar for under-neglected communities, Nesamoney said.
The San Mateo County Department of Health also mentions the eBook as a COVID-19 resource for children.
For now, Nesamoney said she and her brother plan to continue selling the eBook on their website, where parents and educators can download it for free. They also recorded an audiobook to have on YouTube.
Nesamoney said he planned to go to a doctor one day and that the “collective coronavirus agreement” combines his two passions, biology and artistic writing.
“That’s what prompted me to create this book, which links science to the arts and the humanities,” he said.
His brother Sean also has an artistic tendency, with an interest in virtual art, music production and computer programming.
Given the tragic loss of the circle of relatives to the coronavirus this year, Nesamoney seemed grateful that the joy of writing the e-book uneded their families and said that their parents had long been concerned at the American India Foundation and that their grandparents helped. translate the eBook into Indian languages.
“It’s wonderful to have other generations incorporated,” he says. “It’s a laugh to do something like that at 40. “
Nesamoney said he sought out the e-book to give young people the feeling that they can have an effect on the world in those dubious times.
“We’re trying to make it useful and hopeful,” he said. Especially when there are so many losses in the world, we seek to bring some light. “
