The Story Behind Levotrain
Ciao! I’m Daniele, an Italian papà raising my little boy far from Italy.Like many parents, I went through a phase where Luca was afraid of the dark and especially of his closet at bedtime. He was fighting sleep so much, and I wanted to help him feel safe.At the same time, I wanted him to stay connected to my language and heritage through stories we could enjoy together.There’s something else special about Luca: he adores trains and elevators.He can spend entire afternoons pressing buttons, watching doors slide open, and making his trains choo-choo across the floor with pure joy.So one night I wondered… what if I combine the two things he loves most, and try to turn fears into curiosity and wonder?Trains + Elevators = LevoTrain, a magical “Elevator Express.”And what if a closet wasn’t something to fear, but a portal to magical adventures?And that spark became this story: a cozy tale inspired by Luca’s challenge of falling asleep, transformed into a magical journey where bedtime becomes the doorway to beautiful adventures.And this is only the beginning.
Luca’s magical elevator will open to many more worlds, each one filled with Italian words and gentle lessons to help children grow.I hope this first adventure brings wonder and comfort to your home, and maybe helps your child say their first “Buonanotte,” too.
