Zoom Author Interview with Elizabeth Michel & a Giveaway
By Deena Adams
Please help me welcome children’s author and illustrator Elizabeth Michel to the blog this week! I’m excited for you to learn more about Elizabeth and her recent children’s book release, Honk! A Tale of Praise.
One person who comments on this interview by Tuesday, November 9, will win a paperback copy of Honk!
Thanks so much for the interview, Elizabeth! It’s been a pleasure getting to know you. May God continue to bless your writing and illustrating journey.
Join the conversation. Are there any children in your life who would enjoy reading Honk? Can you relate to Elizabeth’s experience of losing the joy of worship by focusing too much on performance? Do you think learning that God accepts us all in our uniqueness is a needed lesson for children today?
Be sure to comment by November 9 for a chance to win a paperback copy of Honk!

The Garden of Eden burst to life at the crack of dawn. Everyone was twittering about the big night. A chickadee choir practiced their song for God.
But Fuzzby the Peacock was nervous. He couldn’t sing like the other birds, he could only honk. Will God want to hear his song? Will Fuzzby have the courage to sing it?
Elizabeth Michel lives in a small hamlet in Ontario with her husband and their two children. When she isn’t working on a book, she enjoys hiking and painting. HONK carries a message that resonates particularly with those in the arts. Elizabeth has found this lesson to be as applicable to her own life as to the lives of the children who will read the story.
Please share this post to help spread the word about Elizabeth’s book!
