About the Author

Although this book is fictional, it's based on actual facts. I wrote this book seven years before I started working on publishing the book, before my daughter got married and had my granddaughter. This is actually quite a story.

I was encouraged and inspired to publish and make this book a reality by my friend and author Ami Blackwelder. One day while I was reading the draft of this story to my children to see what they thought of it, I remembered that my daughter had a favorite teddy bear which she had played with for many years. At this time my daughter was already married and had my granddaughter. I asked her what happened to that teddy bear. She smiled and told me that she still had the teddy bear, but that she gave it to Gabriella. She also told me that Gabriella plays with the teddy bear now.

Since that time, I decided to change the names of the characters and gave them our real names. I am Mrs. Carattini. Bianca is my oldest daughter and of course my granddaughter is Gabriella.
