Olga Podoprigora

Olga Podoprigora is a Canadian author who writes gentle, slightly offbeat stories about animals, small towns, and the curious things that happen when no one’s paying attention. She began writing for children later in life, with a style that blends quiet humor, a touch of the surreal, and a deep affection for the natural world.

Olga believes in the quiet power of stories — not to instruct, but to spark something within. She sees storytelling as a way of sharing light: those who need it will find it.

The Banana From Space and Other Stories From Riverstone is her first published collection.
