Leigh Wallace

Hi there. I’m the writer and illustrator of Leafy’s adventures. Let me tell you the story of how Leafy began…

A leaf blew onto my car windscreen one day and looked right at me - it seemed that way anyway - then blew away to where, I’ll never know.

I do a lot of imagining, so I imagined the places it would go, where it was going and what it would find when it got there.

Could a leaf help someone perhaps? After all, nature often has a way of showing us what to do.

These thoughts became the bedtime stories I told my son, Oscar.

Of course, these were Oscar’s stories, but I hope now, they will become yours too.
