Natali Dumna

Natali Dumna is a Paris-based author of children’s books and cookbooks with a catalogue of more than 67 published titles.

Born in Ukraine and deeply connected to her Italian heritage, Natali blends storytelling traditions from different cultures. Her children’s books inspire young readers aged 3 to 10 to grow with confidence, kindness, and strong family values.

Her passion for cooking comes from her mother and grandmother who live in Rome, where Natali spends much of her time gathering recipes and preserving family culinary traditions. Her cookbooks celebrate the flavors of Italy and promote healthy, mindful eating inspired by her active lifestyle and interest in nutrition.

Whether she is writing heart-warming tales about friendship and courage or creating delicious home-cooking guides, Natali’s mission remains the same: to bring joy, connection, and well-being into everyday family life.
