Author Michelle Nelson-Schmidt shared her books

On February 16th, we were joined by author Michelle Nelson-Schmidt for an installment of our Whittle Readers Series. Michelle spoke about her journey to become an author and illustrator, and spoke to children about overcoming challenges, persistence, and resiliency. 

The children engaged with both the stories and the art as Michelle brought the characters to life. She also read from many of her books, including Cordelia and the Whale. You can learn more about Michelle by visiting https://mnscreative.com/
