Myke Mollard is a children’s educator, illustrator, author and designer – just some of his creative talents. Through his early career in graphic design and advertising, he later found outlets for his passion to educate kids about the natural world around them, informing and entertaining them in the classroom, at home and online. With a growing list of 21 books and counting, Myke's anatomically correct and colourful illustrations are complimented with fascinating facts to engage readers of all ages. His books Wildlife of Australia's Great Barrier Reef and Australian Backyard Birds were featured as Notables in the 2024 CBCA Awards.
He even received support from the late Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE: "Myke's affinity with the Australian bush shows in his unique illustrations. He brings Australia's creatures and their environment to life for all generations to treasure: engaging future custodians of our precious earth."
