Giselle’s Personal Touch
Each donated copy of Micaiah the Brave includes a personalized sticker placed where a child would normally write their name. This heartfelt message is Giselle’s way of connecting with readers—offered in place of a handwritten signature, as she lives with cerebral palsy and uses adaptive tools to share her story. It’s a gentle reminder that every voice matters, and every story deserves to be told.
