Paolo Mazzucato
Few Words From the Author/Publisher:
Inspiration for writing a story comes from many places, and sometimes you don’t even realize from where. My original sense of adventure, I believe, stemmed from travel with my family as a kid: family vacations, camping through New England or across the US into the West, trips to visit family in Italy and journeys into France and Greece with my uncle. The sense of exploration and discovery of new places fed my imagination, and later when I discovered fantasy in literature and movies… Gulliver’s Travels, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Mary Poppins… I began creating my own stories. I wrote shorts and stage plays, screenplays and eventually children’s books and novels to simply express an idea or maybe even build an entire world around a journey or theme.
