Melissa Turnbull was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio. She attended Miami University in Oxford, Ohio and graduated with a degree in finance. Wanting to escape the cold, snowy winters, Melissa and her husband decided to relocate to North Carolina, where they welcomed their first child. From the beginning, one of Melissa's favorite activities to do with her son was read to him. This time spent together sparked her passion for children's literature. Watching her children grow and learn to navigate their world inspired her to write her own children's story. Melissa currently lives in Marvin, North Carolina with her husband, two children and rescue pups. She hopes to one day read this story to her grandchildren and that they will share it with generations to come. See less
