Emma-Jane Leeson is a children’s author living in Kildare beside the beautiful ‘Special Area of Conservation’ Ballynafagh Lake. Emma-Jane wrote her first ‘story about Johnny Magory’ 17 years ago for her first daughter. These stories are all based on the old rhyme “Will I tell you a story about Johnny Magory? Will I begin it, that’s all that’s in it!” which her father used to tell her every night. Each of the stories educate children on Irish heritage and wildlife in a fun way. She is currently writing the TV animation series of Johnny Magory.
Don Conroy, well-known as an artist and TV personality is also a wildlife expert and devotes much of his time to conservation work, particularly with owls. Don lives in Dublin.
