New Children's Book

Buy my new children's book, Ollie & Friends: Ollie's Talents

Meet Ollie—a half-robot, half-human boy with a heart that glows as brightly as his hope to find true friends.  



When Ollie moves to a new town, finding friends and fitting in proves to be a challenge. Whispers, stares, and bullies make him feel more like a machine than a boy. But when Leo, Vera, and Esme show him the power of kindness, everything changes. Together, they take on the ultimate challenge of a sabotaged school talent show that tests their friendship, skills, and courage.

Young People
And Social Media:
Contemporary Children's Digital Culture

Edited by Dr. Steve Gennaro & Blair Miller | 2021

Bailey wrote Chapter 7: "Living Their Best Life: Instagram, SocialComparison and Young Women". This edited collection explores Children Youth and Digital Culture – in particular the practices, relationships, consequences, benefits, and outcomes of children’s experiences with, on, and through social media – by bringing together a vast array of different ideas about childhood and children’s lives. These ideas here are drawn from scholars working in a variety of different and often seemingly disparate disciplines, and more than just describing the social construction of childhood or an understanding of children’s lives, this collection seeks to encapsulate not only how children exist on social media but also how their physical lives are impacted by their presence on social media.

Grief and Loss
June 15, 2022

Grief is the price we pay for love.

My Mom passed away one year ago yesterday. I’ve learned a lot about grief in this last year. A year ago, I felt like I lost any innocence I had when we watched my Mum leave this realm.
