Vescio, Robert

"Robert Vescio loves to read and is a self-confessed hoarder of books, especially children’s books. He enjoys writing stories and sharing his passion with children of all ages. Robert wrote No Matter Who We’re With following his separation in 2008. He hopes his story will help children cope with the changes experienced when parents separate: ‘Separation affects everyone including extended family and special occasions, such as birthdays, Christmas and holidays. It’s important to put the needs of your children first.’ Robert is a huge fan of Disney and loves animation. He lives in Sydney with his two children who are a source of constant inspiration to him. / Cheri Scholten has travelled to many places in the world and finally found a home in Melbourne, Australia.
