Alison Lester was born at Foster in Victoria, Australia. She grew up on a farm overlooking the sea and first rode a horse as a baby in her father’s arms. She still lives in the country and rides her horse whenever she can.
Her picture books mix imaginary worlds with everyday life, encouraging children to believe in themselves and celebrate the differences that make them special.
Alison lives and works at Nar Nar Goon North in West Gippsland.
She spends part of every year travelling to schools in remote areas, using her books to help children and adults write and draw about their own lives.
