About Us 
Publisher and Author, Mary Alice Deveny
My fascination with caregiving began before I was two years old, as the first in a family of nine children born within eleven years. My passion is helping children and young adults develop the communication skills and confidence they need to make sense of their world and to find their own voices to express their gifts and talents.
To this noble and creative work I bring education and training in English (B.A., Marshall University, magna cum laude), Library Science (Master of Library Science, Louisiana State University), and Florida certification as Educational Media Specialist (prekindergarten - grade 12), PreK/Primary Educator (age 3-grade 3), and Drama Educator (grades 6-12).

These are seasoned by over 30 years of working experience as a children's and young adult librarian, teaching artist, storyteller, conference presenter and educator, editor and reviewer, writer and youth advocate.
With my publishing company, Molly Brave, I will make my original writing and music available to the public. These include: Pockets, Through The Screen Door, The Magic Fishbone, The Strange Visitor, Sarah and the Violet Witch, Thunderstorm, Touching the Hand of God, Free As a Bird, Brother Goose Riddles, WE Are Mother Goose, The Boo Boo Books (a beginning reader series), and Edible Flowers A-Z.
