Where the stories came from
I first told these stories aloud to my son Jacob and his friends when he was young, in the gardens, creeks, dams and rainforest of Goonengerry. Now they're picture books, and you can listen too.
I'm Rachel Zinman, a yoga teacher, mentor and author. You can find my other work at rachelzinmanyoga.com.
The stories are entirely my own. The illustrations were created with the assistance of AI image-generation tools, directed and curated by me to match my story descriptions.
