Enfield, CT, February 17, 2025 --(PR.com)-- Michael Ficarra, founder of "Unbind Your Mind," an organization that combats racism while promoting leadership and diversity, has completed his new book, “Wants and Needs”: a heartfelt rhyming tale to help young readers understand the importance of being thankful when their needs are met, while knowing the difference from what things they want.

He is an avid bass fisherman, who also loves football and baseball, with the Raiders and Yankees being his teams of choice. Micheal is also a father of three daughters and a son, as well as a loving husband to his wife, Natalie.

“Parenting. Is there anything more challenging?” writes Ficarra. “‘Wants and Needs’ is the first book in my series that allows children and parents to share stories reflecting on respect, kindness, appreciation and love. As adults we sometimes need to relearn or refresh our thoughts as we hand down valuable lessons to our children. Children are sponges and the earlier in their development that they can soak up unconditional love and kindness, the better. I hope you enjoy this one.”
