ANNAMARIA SOLDERA

Annamaria Soldera, born in Sacile in 1983, moved to Treviso after a few months in Pordenone. At three she moved to the university city of Padua. At nine she was offered an exceptional means of transport, the wheelchair, and she accepted it: it is a fast vehicle, and travelling seated is always comfortable. After having tested the vehicle as a tourist across Europe, she moved to Milan, where she lived in a university college for five years. At the end of her studies she flew to the United States for a short period and then returned to Padua, where she stopped for work and began the great journey into the world of books. She began writing for cousins and nieces and nephews and, remembering the stories of her grandparents, spent some weekends in the city's retirement homes, where she met special people who are nicer than comic characters and realised that all life from birth to death is a unique, fantastic story to tell.
