Hello,
I’m Christian.
I’m an Australian-based children’s author, poet and musician. I love stories that invite children to imagine, explore and celebrate what makes them unique.
My first book, If I Could Be a Kangaroo, was published in 2021 and dedicated to the Australian animals lost in the 2019–2020 bushfires. Today, that little spark of imagination has grown into a collection of eight children’s books.
