Alice Cardini

Alice Cardini writes middle grade stories about finding your people in unexpected places. Originally from upstate New York, she spent her adolescence in Japan before living most of her adult life in London and later moving to Italy. Her cross-cultural experience informs her understanding of belonging and identity, and shapes her writing about friendship, home, and the way kindness connects people across borders. A Brown University graduate, she holds a Master's in Writing for Young People from Bath Spa University in the UK. Alice lives in Milan, Italy, with her Italian husband, two children, and their dogs. London Unleashed is her debut middle grade novel and the first in a planned series.
