Publisher Simon & Schuster is set to release a children’s book about Dr. Anthony Fauci later this summer.
Written by children’s book author Kate Messner and illustrated by Alexandra Bye, the book, titled “Dr. Fauci: How A Boy From Brooklyn Became America’s Doctor,” is scheduled for release June 29 and is currently available for pre-order.
