Author Biography: Ebony Froome is a Wardandi Noongar woman who lives and works in Busselton, Western Australia. Her books share her perspective on the Noongar country she calls home. Ebony hopes her work will increase awareness and respect for Noongar language and culture and will inspire the next generation.

Leanne Zilm is a descendant of the Wudjari and Goreng Noongar tribal groups, who was born in 1962 in Katanning, Western Australia, and currently lives in Rockingham. Leanne started painting in 2016 when her mother, who was a landscape artist, encouraged her to take up painting. Leanne works with acrylics, and the backgrounds for her paintings are created using an acrylic pour technique. Her art is inspired by the natural environment, the ocean, sunrises, sunsets, and the native flora and fauna that abounds in the Fitzgerald River National Park and Bremer Bay region in the South-West of Western Australia.
