Lilian Fanny Gask (1865, Marylebone–17 November 1942, Camberwell) was an author of children's books. She was the eldest of six children of Charles Gask, merchant, and his wife Fanny, née Edis. Her brother, Arthur Gask, was also a writer. In 1891, she was recorded in the England and Wales Census as being employed as a "pupil nurse" in London. In 1904, her first book, Dog Tales, was published. This was the first of about thirty books published during her lifetime.
