Today, I am talking with Michelle Knudsen. Michelle is the author of 50 children’s books: from early readers, board books and picture books to middle grade, young adult and even short stories, too. 

While we don’t have enough time to talk about all of her books, we do highlight a few books she’s known best for and take a deeper dive into her middle grade novel trilogy. We talk about where the ideas for her books come from, how and why a bit of magic appears on her pages and what’s coming up next for her. 

Here are the books mentioned in this episode. You’ll find links to my Amazon and Bookshop affiliate stores below. Thanks for your bookish support!
