Gianna Lucia Capelli is a lifelong educator, musician, and creative storyteller who believes in the magic of childhood wonder. With a background in music education and early childhood development, Gianna has always used rhythm, language, and imagination to inspire young learners.

As a mom to a young bilingual child, Gianna found herself searching for meaningful stories that could support her family’s journey of learning both German and English. Frustrated by the limited options, she began writing her own bilingual and language-rich stories filled with lessons, connection, and joy.

Now living in the dotted countryside of Germany with her son Milo, her husband Tobias, and their two little dogs, Stella the curious corgi and Ruby the snuggly long haired dachshund, Gianna brings to life the simple joys of rural living. From forest walks and fresh vegetables to slow and meaningful moments, her everyday life inspires stories filled with warmth, whimsy, and a touch of musicality.

Each page she writes invites children and families to read, sing, explore, and grow together while celebrating languages, cultures, and generations.

When she’s not writing or creating mini musicals, you’ll find Gianna enjoying time with her family, sipping coffee in a cozy village café, or sharing snippets of motherhood and expat life on social media @giannalucia22.
