Marion, MA, September 02, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Donna Lee Tufts has completed her new book, "Mikey's Beach Day: A Story to Honor a Brother...", a heartwarming children's tale inspired by her cherished memories of her late brother. The story follows ten-year-old Mikey as he spends a sun-filled June day exploring a barrier beach, where his curious nature and love for the outdoors lead him to collect shells, observe wildlife, and document his discoveries in a treasured notebook. With each turn of the page, readers journey alongside this inquisitive young explorer as he uncovers the natural wonders hidden along the shoreline.

As a former Language Arts teacher, Tufts brings her deep understanding of how children learn and explore their world to this engaging narrative.
