Gentle Lessons

Ricardo Demi Author Interview

The Adventures of Lucky Rocky follows a fun-loving and adventurous puppy who loves to spend time with his friends and learn valuable life lessons and problem-solving skills together. What inspired this series?

This series was born out of my desire to create a joyful book that teaches children about friendship, kindness, and helping each other. Rocky the puppy is a friend who, together with his friends, takes little readers on fun and heartfelt adventures. I wanted children to see warmth in these stories and learn valuable lessons while simply enjoying tales of friendship.

What ideas were important for you to share in this book?

I wanted to show that kindness and friendship make life brighter and more interesting. Through Rocky’s simple and relatable adventures, children can see how wonderful it is to support each other and enjoy being together. These stories are filled with gentle lessons that teach children to help, share, and be attentive to others — qualities that are so meaningful to cultivate from a young age.

What scene in the book did you have the most fun writing?

I especially enjoyed writing the scene in the first story where Brisket hides under a bucket, accidentally causing a commotion in the yard. It’s a fun and a little chaotic moment, with a lot of laughter and unexpected twists. Brisket’s mishap adds humor to the story and shows children that even when things don’t go right the first time, they can laugh about it, especially with the support of friends.

What will the next book in the series be about, and when will it be published?

The next book will continue Rocky’s adventures with his friends. It will bring new characters and explore more themes of friendship and helping each other. We’re planning for its release soon so that children can enjoy the warm, happy world of Rocky and his friends once again.
