The Legend of Dust Bunnies, a Fairy's Tale by Michelle R. Eastman

I have wanted to write a picture book for most of my adult life. He is now 9, and I still read aloud to him each night. My son and I make a trip to the library once a week to fill our bag. Rhyming picture books are my favorite books to read. Artie uses found items to create unique treasures and happily shares them with his fellow Dust Fairies. He notices and appreciates the beauty in items that most of us would cast off as trash. My story’s main character, Artie, was inspired by my eight-year old son’s habit of collecting things. It will have families looking at dust bunnies in a new light, and may actually give kids an excuse NOT to clean their rooms. The Legend of Dust Bunnies is the story about how and why a misfit Dust Fairy turns dust into cuddly dust bunnies and the joyful aftermath that follows. When given lemons you’re supposed to make lemonade, right? This story does one better, it turns DUST into DUST BUNNIES. At first, Artie is lonely and unsure of what to do, but then he takes matters into his own hands. He doesn’t like messes, and he doesn’t fit in.

The Legend of Dust Bunnies will open your eyes to a world of dirt and dust that you never knew could be so magical and fun! Did you know that Dust Fairies come into our homes at night and spread dust, drape spider webs, and even spit crumbs into the carpet? They do! It’s true! Well, not all fairies.
