My name is Carmela Castaldo, this is my second book. My first was a picture book called "What Could It Be". I wanted to write a book that would be enjoyable for my four grandsons and three granddaughters. I stopped writing for a while, just didn't know what direction I wanted to go. Then watching my grandson grow, I thought have wonderful it would be to write something about growing up, that's when the little dragon came into my life. Since my grandson's name was Luca of course I named the book "The Little Dragon Luca". Now I have seven grandchildren and two greatgrandchildren with another on the way, what better time to finally publish my book.
