Matthew Myers s career as a children s book illustrator began in 2011 with two starred reviews: "Publishers Weekly", which named him a Flying Start, and "Kirkus Reviews", which said: Myers s oil paintings truly amaze. Since then he has illustrated several books, including "Clink", "Tyrannosaurus Dad", "A is For Musk Ox", "Bartholomew Biddle and the Very Big Wind", and "Battle Bunny". Rather than adapting each book to his own style, Myers prefers to adapt his oil painting style to best fit the idea of each book he is working on. He lives and works in Charlotte, North Carolina.
