About the Author Author Jay Mikael has spent the last twenty some years with his wife raising their three girls, who are now about to reach their college years. Mikael has worked and lived in his share of Midwestern states, including cities such as Omaha, Chicago, and St. Louis, as well as many other small towns along the way. He says that one of the most interesting positions he held during his career was with the five-and-dime store, F.W. Woolworth, which allowed his family a chance to see many new places. Mikael recently had one of life's "a-ha" moments when he noticed that his daughters started showing more interest in things other than family vacations. Having always liked writing, photography, and painting, paired with the additional time gained from no longer attending his daughter's dance lessons and the like, Mikael started to work on putting together ideas for children's books. Mikael hopes to have as much fun with the next chapter in his life as he has had with the last. So far it has all been a blast...
Moving tribute Goodbye Kitty is a moving tribute that will touch the heart of any child who has loved and lost a cat. I bought this book for my small grandchildren who will soon face the passing of their beloved Sadie. I know that this book will be an often read remembrance and celebration of Sadie's life.
