About The Author

Gary Lonesborough.png

I’m an Australian storyteller and author.


I practice the traditional art of spoken story and write non fiction books for children.


For me, the art of storytelling is connected to the book, like blossom to fruit.


I live in the traditional lands of the Kulin Nation.


My home is in country that has long been mapped by story.
