Rochdale teaching assistant Miranda Webber has written a story to help children understand social distancing.
Miranda recorded a video of herself reading 'The Naughty Little Bug' and posted the video to the social media accounts of St Mary's Primary School in Balderstone, where she works in the reception class so parents could show it to their children.
Miranda said: "I've got two children aged four and seven. They've been a bit wobbly and don't understand.
"I thought it would be nice to write something aimed at children to help them understand.
"My daughter Erin, aged 7, has done the illustrations for the 'book'.
"I decided to post the video publicly to my own facebook account and I can't believe how many people have viewed it (over 12,000 so far).
"I hope it helps parents explain to children what is going on."
