A lifelong champion of kindness, she draws on her experience as a teacher, mentor, and mom to weave tales that build confidence sentence by sentence. Michele believes books should be felt as much as read, so each turn of the page offers a moment of discovery or a giggle of delight. Whether she’s visiting schools, leading story-time sing-alongs, or jotting notes in her garden, her mission remains the same: help children find their feathers and fly. Little readers leave her stories taller, braver, and bursting with ideas of their own.
OH MY!… I CAN FLY! follows Barry, a tiny featherless bird who thinks he was born to stay caged—until three vibrant friends share “Promise Feathers” that shimmer with hope, strength, and joy. Their music, laughter, and unwavering faith spark a revelation: Barry is actually an eagle, meant for the endless blue. In a triumphant leap, he discovers both his wings and his calling—to help others believe they can soar too. Packed with colorful spreads and a refrain children love to shout aloud, this tale turns bedtime into lift-off while quietly planting seeds of resilience and self-worth.
