The Stolen Year: How COVID Changed Children’s Lives, and Where We Go Now

The cost of closing our schools for so long during COVID, made with good intentions, has not yet been fully reckoned with. Author and NPR education reporter Anya Kamenetz shows how the pandemic disrupted children’s lives—and how our country failed to put our kids first.

Anya Kamenetz has covered education for many years including for NPR. She speaks, writes, and thinks about learning and the future. Her newest book is "The Stolen Year: How Covid Changed Children’s Lives, And Where We Go Now."
