As a baby, Michael Rosenbum would lie in his diaper and watch the ants move about on the sidewalk. Living in his imaginative worlds, he grew up as a whimsical thinker, realizing that even the sun plays hide and seek on a rainy day. This positive and hopeful mindset has empowered him to believe that even life’s unpleasant moments are just hidden lessons that can unlock his dreams. A successful businessman, he is humbled and passionate to share insightful messages within his “Happily Ever Always” series. The Caterpillar and the Butterfly, Michael’s first book of the series, featuring Faith the butterfly, was published by Austin Macauley in February 2021.
