Hello there, I’m Jonny.

I write books that children actually want to read … the ones full of gods misbehaving, monsters sulking and geese making a mess of things. Weird, wise, foolish and funny, preferably all at once.

I live in East London, and spend a lot of time in schools in Newham and Redbridge, running mythology, poetry and creative writing projects.

I also work with children worldwide (ages 5–13), and I teach mythology online with Outschool — helping young mythologists discover stories that are as complex, funny and interesting as they are.
