ABOUT THE CREATORS
The Brilliant Minds Behind Vesta on a Vespa
Vesta on a Vespa didn’t just roll in on two wheels—it zoomed straight out of the imaginations of Brian Betze, co-creator, author, and illustrator, and Cheryl Barbagallo, co-creator and author. As co-creators and authors, they dedicate themselves to championing feel-good mischief and meaningful moments through their work.
Brian, a lifelong educator and father of two, believes that children learn best through creativity, humor, and heart. Every illustration in Vesta on a Vespa serves as Brian’s love letter to the story. His deep devotion as an artist shines through on every page, infusing Vesta’s world with emotion and imagination so it is not just seen but felt.
Cheryl is a proud boy mom, entrepreneur, and the sparkle behind Vesta’s snappy voice. Inspired by love, life, and her own fabulous detours, she helped shape a story that encourages everyone to pause, pivot, and choose kindness—even when temptation appears in the form of a snack.
