Roland Harvey is one of Australia's best-loved illustrators.

Some of his best-loved books include My Place in Space (with Joe Levine), Burke and Wills, The First Fleet and Sick As (with Gael Jennings). His recent books include the best-selling At the Beach and In the Bush and his illustrations are featured in It's True! Burke and Wills Forgot the Frying Pan by David Greagg and the Bonnie and Sam series featuring the horses and ponies of Coolibah Creek, in collaboration with Alison Lester.
