My brother’s journal when he was 4- about me!

Dean “Dino” Graziano is a proud Italian-American dad, storyteller, and all-around guy who believes laughter belongs at the dinner table right next to the pasta. He grew up learning life’s best lessons from his father, Salvatore, a man with a big heart, a quick wit, and a knack for turning everyday moments into teachable (and laughable) ones.
Through his stories, Dean shares those same lessons—the good, the messy, and the funny—in hopes of reminding readers that parenting, like cooking, goes best with equal parts patience, love, and humor. Pasta, Pranks, and Parenting mixes recipes, real-life stories, and a few good-natured laughs to celebrate family in all its imperfect glory.
When he’s not writing or stirring up memories in the kitchen, Dean’s a multi-state and national award-winning educator. He’s the proud father of David and the even prouder grandfather of Anthony Salvatore Graziano.
