Meet the team behind Matteo series

Maude Lemay
Author
As a mom of two young boys, Maude started writing to meet a very simple need—that of her children. They wanted stories they could see themselves in, with real emotions and everyday moments. That's how this series was born, inspired by real life, to help kids and grown-ups better understand and navigate the emotions we all feel.
