There’s been a mix-up at the Museum - some of the displays from the Myths and Legends exhibit have snuck into the Natural History wing. We have to sort it out, but how can we tell fact from fiction? Animal from apparition? Megafauna from monster?

About The Author
Kate Simpson
Kate Simpson is a picture book author and bookworm who loves fact and fiction in equal measure. Raised on a diet of children’s fiction, it was Kate’s fascination with science that led her to her first career as a chemical engineer. Kate rediscovered her love of picture books after the birth of her children and now juggles a full-time job as an engineer with her writing work. Her books feature Australian history, science, curious kids and powerful women. Unreal is Kate’s sixth children’s book.
Leila Rudge is an award-winning illustrator and picture book writer living on Awabakal Country (Newcastle). After completing an Illustration Degree at Bath Spa University in England, Leila headed to Australia in search of sunshine. She has written and illustrated over 15 children’s books, including the CBCA Honour Book Gary and the CBCA short-listed Winston and the Indoor Cat. Leila’s work is a mixture of watercolour and pencil, all hand-rendered onto big sheets of watercolour paper ready to be scanned into picture book pages.
