Ellen Gerberich, also known by her pen name LE Macy, is a talented author and artist dedicated to creating children’s books that nurture emotional intelligence and kindness. With a heartfelt passion for storytelling and a deep love for animals, Ellen’s works aim to inspire young readers to embrace themselves and others with compassion and confidence.


Residing in Fair Haven with her husband Charlie and their beloved cat Clyde, Ellen’s personal experiences with Clyde—who went from a feral stray to her spokes-cat—have profoundly influenced her creative journey. Clyde even has his own Facebook page and makes a charming cameo appearance in Can You See The Fairies, adding a delightful touch of whimsy to her stories.


Ellen’s published works include three enchanting children’s books: Clyde The Lucky Cat: A True Story, Clyde The Lucky Cat: It’s Okay To Be, and Can You See The Fairies. Though this is her second published book, she has been nurturing her craft for years and is eager to share more stories in the future.


In a fun twist, Clyde has become her “spokes-cat,” bringing joy and charm to her creative endeavors. Through her books, Ellen hopes to foster a world where kindness and emotional understanding flourish, encouraging children to explore these values through engaging and heartfelt narratives.
