About the Author
Olson, Michelle: - Having started her career in Biomedical Research Michelle never dreamed she would one day be publishing her own children's books. But, as luck would have it, her journey to find the perfect job led to a story of a button who found himself in the same situation. Her love for picture books, photography, and all things miniature, gave way to the creation of Norman the Button. Her success with Norman has validated her need to push the limits of what a children's picture book can be and how a child perceives the main character. Check out her work at www.michelle-olson.com
