Author Matthew Cooper

Matt is a father of 3 kids under 6 and a first time children’s book author. He’s written plenty of short films and one feature film and loves writing and telling stories with a passion. His work to pay the bills is managing two digital marketing companies with offices around Australia. One day, if dreams come true, the passion projects may just pay the bills. For now though, he enjoys making up stories with valuable life lessons woven into them, to help his children to prepare for the highs and lows of life. Lucy the Crocodile was a story written for his eldest daughter Ayla who begged him to tell it to her over and over again every night for what seemed like a very long time. Ayla helped him edit the book and give feedback to the wonderful illustrator, Krista Brennan. Now it’s time to teach Ayla how to build an eCommerce website and start shipping her story ‘Lucy the Crocodile’ wide and far. Matt is in the process of writing two more stories for his middle and youngest kids.
