Plans

By
Most of the books I write are children's books.  These books are for children that have really hard decisions to make. The topics stem from abuse and neglect to explaining adoption. I think that it is really important for parents, teachers and children to be able to communicate such hard topics. These subjects are really tough to approach, so these books were made to bring up the  , eventually the plans that I have for Miss Birdies Books are to host workshops. 

My mission is to make it easy for adults to talk to children and vice versa.

SHIFT UP!!!

By
SO... Yes it's been awhile. Living life and stuff. The thing is, in my absence here, I've sincerely been taking care of business for myself and Bam.

These women had serious strength and showed great courage despite the circumstances at hand and their survival instincts to stay alive were inspiring. At the time of their kidnapping,  Gina was just 14, Amanda was almost 17. On Twitter, I saw some feedback with people asking why would the young ladies get into a car with a stranger. Answer to that is, this man was no stranger. This man preyed on his own children's friends and took advantage of the fact that these girls were familiar with him.

The driver of our daily bus ride that we do small talk with, the crossing ...

Daddy doesn't live here anymore

By
Daddy Doesn't Live Here Anymore is about a child dealing with parental separation and the absence of a father's presence. Dealing with separation himself, my son was the inspiration behind me writing this one. I'm still looking for the illustrations, so this book is not on sale yet. Go to MissBirdiesBooks.com for our other books.
