Mikki DeFever
Children's Book Author
For over 20 years, Mikki worked with kids as a reading interventionist and play-based behavioral specialist helping kids navigate big feelings and build confidence—usually through play, laughter, and a really good story.
Now she writes books that do the same. Some are heartfelt, some gently weave in self-regulation strategies, and some are all about the laughs.
She is represented by Katie Erickson at Jennifer De Chiara Literary Agency.
