About the Author

Anthony "Tony" Aprigliano is a practioner in the art of common sense & service to others. There was a time giving a go as a Model/Actor seemed a wise idea. That idea didn't come to fruition as anticipated. I fell back on being a private chauffeur for over 45 years driving Oscar winning Directors leaders of many major companies worldwide & high rank Government Politicians. Add to that an award-winning Bartender for over 40 years. I have learned many lessons by listening to them. With the lessons I've learned & inspiration I felt through my Niece ( Frankie Marie) & Nephews (Johnny Mikey Daniel & Nicholas) this was the book they could enjoy & use as a learning tool. With time spent between family & service to many people of high intelligence, I was motivated to become an author. A children's book is just the beginning. Thanks Kids.
