Swine Flu

It is almost impossible to turn on the television news, or pick up a newspaper, or listen to the radio without hearing about swine flu these days. Everyone is concerned, and appropriately so. Still, it is a little scary for kids as they hear all the dire warnings and predictions about the illness. Here's an Swine Flu Goes Global_, written for kids, that does a pretty good job of explaining the illness and how it spreads.
If you are interested in where there are ( or where there have been ) cases of swine flu, check out this interactive map.
