Purr'cy Cat

Mike Gauss wrote his first storytime rhyme, Bailey’s Blue Jay, at the age of 14. The lyrical and rhythmic nature of the poem stuck in his head through growing up and making a career in media relations. After years of authoring business articles and ghostwriting copy for business clients, Mike decided he needed to apply his craft to more joyous pursuits. Using his keen sense of observation, childlike heart and a love for helping children understand and relate to the world around them, Mike released his first set of books in 2020.
