The stories of Roberto Rabbit originated in the hills of Italy, an hour north of Florence where I lived with my son Giulio. Roberto was a real rabbit! But his stories come out of an imaginary world of dreams, the message of which I hope is true and real, of family ties, love, kindness and friendship and of the hopes and dreams we all carry in our hearts. Have you ever met a little brown rabbit sporting a pale blue jacket who traveled the world in a hot air balloon in search of a recipe buried deep and lost in the annals of rabbit history?

Roberto in Love

New! Follow Roberto’s adventures in this small book with big ideas! Out now on Amazon.com.

Roberto in Love is the story of Roberto, a small brown rabbit with a mighty heart. He would always say, “I am small, but I am big.” There is truth in this. However, it is not only Roberto’s story, but also that of an equally important personage who will remain unknown for now, out of fear of spoiling the surprises baked into the story, much like a good Christmas pudding!

Roberto’s tale of adventure begins in Italy, tracing his early life to the place of his birth in the dusty town of Pietrasanta. The story takes place in the late 19th century in France and Italy, and although a most unlikely tale, the underlying principles remain true today. It’s a personal account of discovered love, found purpose, and growth. The adventure, needless to say, takes some twists and turns as life does, and is a realization of dreams unforeseen. These are the things of life that give us hope. Roberto’s kind spirit is within us all. He represents the best of ourselves in this small book with big ideas. Please read on!
