Ilaria Prada

I graduated in languages because I love to travel. I’ll take any means of transport—but I prefer imagination over airplanes… mostly because I’m terrified of takeoff!
I live in the countryside, but I dream of the city—and in a way, I live in the place I dream about.
I took part in Scrittori si diventa because I write everywhere… on napkins, receipts, even on my computer.
After winning the contest, I published La boutique dei ricordi with Salani. That’s how my adventure in children’s literature began—but let’s be honest: ever since I was a little girl, I’ve wanted to write for kids like me. And now, I’m the very first child I write for.
