Abstract

The objective of this study is to evaluate children's stories that are used to communicate and to educate children about the COVID-19 pandemic. It evaluates the appropriateness of the story selection by assessing the intrinsic elements and the visual images of the stories. The research focuses on three stories that have been endorsed by three Indonesian government bodies, and evaluates both the narrative and the visual images of the stories. These children's stories have become extremely popular and have been widely acknowledged as a wonderful method of educating, entertaining, and assisting youngsters in dealing with the crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

This study investigates how wellthese children's stories are in addressing the COVID-19 crisis tochildren.
