“We should offer reading as a special present to our children and never forced or presented as a chore they must do. We should offer reading as a special present to their little minds, so each time in their life they pick up a book to read, they feel they just opened a new gift.”
​
“I believe something special happens when we open a book
and read. We are transformed into a different place and time.”

During my very early high school years (going through a rough patch) I found refuge in my English Literature class with a great teacher, Mr. Peter Diaferria. He taught us to dig deep in writings of books. He made us break down each chapter and many times paragraphs to get the reasoning behind the author's view and meaning of who, what and where. One of my favorite books from this class was "The Merchant of Venice."
Summary
Antonio, an anti-Semitic merchant, takes a loan from the Jewish Shylock to help his friend to court Portia. Antonio can't repay the loan, and without mercy, Shylock demands a pound of his flesh. The heiress Portia, now the wife of Antonio's friend, dresses as a lawyer and saves Antonio. From this, I now write Fiction Crime/Detective Murder Mysteries. On the way other side of the writing spectrum, I also write a series of Children's learning stories. These stories (Adventures of Carmelo™ ) help children understand new adventures, teaching respect, listening, following instructions, to be brave, and that it’s okay to be scared when facing a new adventure. Thank you, Mr. Peter Diaferia.
