Civil Disobedience (Free Download)

Description

Let’s face it, times are tough and the COVID-19 virus has us all a little rattled.

Good folks all over the world are sheltering in place, our healthcare workers are overburdened, and the financial markets are plummeting. And worst of all, bookstores, restaurants, borders, and libraries are all closed.

But we still believe that a little bit of laughter can help ease the fear and uncertainty we’re all wrestling with these days.

In that spirit, Ann McMan & Bywater Books have teamed up to bring you a comic tincture that we hope will brighten your days and nights of social distancing . . .

Join Diz, Clarissa, the three chipmunks (Alvin, Simon, and Teddy), and a marauding Siberian husky named Sadie in this heartwarming tale that reminds us all of the magic that happens when families join together.

The best part?
