Synopsis

Named to Kirkus Reviews' Best Books of 2018 and a finalist in the NIEA Awards,  Norman is a sweet story of perseverance for kids 4-8.


Norman the Button loved his job. He helped keep his coat closed and his person warm. This made Norman feel needed and that made him very happy. But after falling off his coat Norman feels depressed, he is convinced he must find a new job to feel needed again. He tries several new jobs but none are a good fit. After being burned as a firefighter and nearly drowned as a plumber, Norman almost decides to give up and let himself be recycled. Once Norman realizes his greatest strength is in being a button, he finally sees the perfect job is right in front of him.

About the Author

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.
