Andrea Iachini was born in Ascoli Piceno, a small town in central Italy. He spent his childhood in the country where he explored the nature around him, climbing trees and playing with cats and other farm animals that quickly became his friends. He cultivated his passion for drawing by studying illustration and animation at the Nemo Academy of Digital Arts in Florence. After several years of pursuing other art forms, the desire to draw and tell his stories called him back to illustrating and inspired him to write A Snail Tale.

Cottage Door Press is an independent publisher of high-quality children's books. Our books are designed to spark curiosity in the littlest readers and fan the flames of lifelong learning. We understand children deserve our respect. That's why we always select artwork and stories that encourage caregivers to "read up" to their little ones--exploring interests together, learning together, and giving their young minds room to grow.

We also believe in creating stories that reflect the boundless possibilities of all children. We hope to create books that inspire little ones to connect, encourage them to dream, give them cause to celebrate, and allow them to see themselves beautifully reflected in the stories they read.

To bring these beautiful stories to life, our diverse and talented staff collaborates with authors and illustrators from all backgrounds and nationalities. We have also partnered with multicultural brands and literacy organizations to make sure our books reflect and reach as many little ones as possible.
