Michelle gave an energetic and entertaining presentation that featured the reading of her books, showing her art, and inspiring children and adults alike to persevere and follow whatever dream is in their hearts. The students were able to ask questions and share their own dreams with their classmates. Photo caption: K4 students listen intently as the author reads “Jonathan James and the Whatif Monster”.
