Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series! In this thoughtful episode, we talk with Virginia De Francisco—former teacher, school psychologist, and children’s author—whose work is inspired by the challenges and triumphs of the students she’s counseled, especially those in special education and dealing with anxiety.
Virginia’s passion lies in helping children overcome fear, embrace joy, and understand the power of their emotions and dreams. Her deep connection to nature and environmental issues was shaped by her upbringing in a desert ghost town—where no water flowed and only the concrete foundations of homes remain. This powerful backdrop drives her mission to teach children about hydrogeology, water conservation, and reclamation through heartfelt storytelling.
From desert skies to yoga poses under the stars, Virginia infuses her work with mindfulness, resilience, and a reverence for nature. Her books are not just stories—they’re tools for healing, hope, and awareness.
