Mike Orodán

Mike (Mihály) Orodán is an author and illustrator. His first children's books were published in 2019. With cleverly layered pages and distinctive limited-palette artwork, the PEEK-A-BOO BABIES books introduce young readers to life in the ocean and on a farm. Readers can lift the flaps to help each animal parent find their babies. Peekaboo fans will delight in revealing every adorable baby animal—and learning what special sound they make. More recently, in 2020 Mike illustrated Katy Duffield's CROSSINGS. An Amazon Editor's Pick, the powerful nonfiction picture book explores wildlife crossings around the world and how they are helping save thousands of animals every day. CROSSINGS also won the California Reading Association award. Mike lives in the United Kingdom.
