'Russell Irving is a children's book author who produces quality children's books to inspire them to care for and connect with themselves and nature. He has lived most of his life in Melbourne, a vibrant, creative city but far too cold and wintry. He now lives on the warm, sunny north coast of New South Wales. Apart from writing, he has worked for many years as an environmental educator and manager, including with Indigenous Ranger groups across Australia. This experience has reinforced his passion for educating people, and children in particular, about the many benefits of caring for and building meaningful connections with nature.'
