Author

Chiara Ravizza

Born in Novara in 1990, freelance author Chiara Ravizza lives in

Milan, where she graduated in educational sciences in 2013. She

is currently specializing in pedagogical sciences and has worked

as an educator in early childhood services. Today she is involved

in support for children with disabilities.

Writing has accompanied Chiara’s life from an early age. It was,

in fact, around the age of 10 that she began to compose her first

verses, discovering in poetry an essential expressive source of

herself and her emotions.

In 2020 she began collaborating with illustrator Susanna

Covelli, professor at the Comics academy in Turin, with whom

she is designing several illustrated books to be published in

2022 by well-known Italian publishers. Writing for children

has become a new form of expression that Chiara uses to revisit

children’s primordial emotions, giving them symbolic and

imaginative interpretation, which affirms the experience of

authentic emotions for little readers.
