The Miles Universe
A fulfilling series of rhythmic books every kid can relate to and enjoy — brought to life through the adventures of Milli, her cousins, and their pets.
Milli Miles
Milli Miles is a rambunctious young girl who is curious and creative about all aspects of her life. She lives in the suburbs with her parents and her best friend, her dog, Milton. Their home backs up to a forest, full of life, and across the street is a local farm which provides her lots of places to explore and get into trouble.
The Miles Series started with Milli exploring the 5 senses. The first five books came to life:
Then, in 2026, the Miles books began to expand as Milli had her "First Day of School" — a brand new adventure beyond the senses.
Matt & Mike Miles
Milli has younger cousins, Matt and his little brother Mike Miles, who live in an apartment in the city. Matt is 2 years younger than Milli and his brother is two. They have a pet parakeet, Ticket. Together, they provide all the experiences needed to make a fulfilling series of rhythmic books every kid can relate to and enjoy.
"Fly High"
Matt's first airplane trip — soaring through the sky and discovering the world from above.
"I Don't Care What You Say"
A frustrating time for a young boy who isn't old enough to make his own decisions.
Michael's World
Marcy Spear also wrote a young adult novel, "Michael's World" — an empowering illustrated chapter book for older readers exploring identity, resilience, and quiet courage with rich visual storytelling by Caterina Baldi.
