Gina Esposito is a storyteller, creator, and lifelong lover of imagination. With a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts in Theatre, Gina spent her early years immersed in the worlds of scripts, characters, and performance—all of which beautifully influence her writing today.

Born and raised in Great River, Long Island, New York, Gina still lives just miles from where her story began. When she’s not writing children’s books, she dedicates herself to her family’s 80-year-old local business, teaches cooking classes, knits cozy treasures, volunteers in her community, and fosters dogs from the local animal shelter.

Her debut book, Mia & Margie: Silkworms, is the beginning of the Mia & Margie Children’s Book Series—a collection built on friendship, curiosity, emotional learning, and the magic of nature. With each story, Gina hopes to spark joy, comfort, and wonder in the hearts of young readers everywhere.

“Childhood doesn’t need big moments to feel magical.
Sometimes all it takes is a dog, a friend, and a story.” – Gina Esposito
