Nonno

Nonno is a heartfelt children's story by Frank Moyo inspired by his song "Nonno's Garden." The book celebrates the special bond between grandparents and grandchildren while shining a light on the importance of the family garden - a place filled with love, tradition, lessons, and lifelong memories.

Through warm storytelling and meaningful moments shared in the garden, readers are reminded of the values passed down from one generation to the next: patience, hard work, family, and appreciation for the simple things in life.

Nonno is Frank's second published work following his debut children's book, Nonna, continuing his mission of preserving Italian culture and family values through storytelling, music, and imagination.
