About the Author

Michel lives on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia. She studied Professional Children’s Writing and Publishing for three years and is passionate about writing humorous stories that will not only entertain young children, but hopefully also entice reluctant readers. She has never had a karate lesson in her life but guarantees it would be hilariously entertaining if she did.
