She hopes her young readers come away from her second book, Please Don t Tell Cooper That Jack is a Rabbit, learning the importance of friendship and that friends should celebrate their differences.As a lifelong animal advocate, Michelle is a strong supporter of animal welfare organizations and does her best to spread the word of the impor
