Julia Blackburn
Author of Magical Nature Stories for Children
Award-nominated children’s author creating eco-adventure stories that connect young readers with the magic of nature.

I write eco-adventure stories for children aged 8–12, blending science and imagination to show how courage, curiosity, and care can change the world.
My books — including The Lost Dragonflies and The Songbird Army — explore trust, friendship, and the invisible threads that bind people and nature together.
Through storytelling, I hope to inspire the next generation of readers to see the wonder in the wild, wherever they live.
