Author Information

Kieren Fitz-Gibbon has great runs on the boards when it comes to storytelling. He is the father of four boys - current age 2, 5, 7, and 9. Bedtime storytime was and is a daily feature of the family household, and although books are great, Kieren invented his own magical storytime. Hence, The Magic Trampoline was born. Kieren has told hundreds of different Magic Trampoline adventure bed time stories for his children. He focusses on ensuring the children use their imagination - asking them where they want to go, who they want to see, and what they want to do when the adventure is underway. Many suggestions are incorporated into the stories, and hence the boy's imaginations run wild. Kieren holds a degree in engineering and an associated Masters Degree. But these don't go near to qualifying him for story telling! Actually - these are very poor qualifications (engineers aren't traditionally very imaginative). Trial and error in story telling over numerous years, and wanting to provide a wonderful and uplifting upbringing for his children are the only qualifications needed. Kierne continues to raise his four children - with his wonderful wife and mother of four, and bedtime storyime is always a wonderful experience!
