Autorenporträt

A wizard with words and a man of the bush. Aaron is a 25-year-old father of two and a beloved husband. He has spent five years assisting the bush to regenerate in the South Coast of New South Wales, and spent far too much of that time daydreaming and fantasizing. The Wizard and the Birdsong is the first fruit of his laborious fantasizing, and a gift he hopes will be read by families all over the world to help honour old ways of community-mindedness and caring for our loved ones.
