It's where you can find all of Australia's best illustrators, whose work is selected by a committee of experts from the book industry.

… A site that is a wonder to look at, quick to load, easy to navigate, and with marvelous surprises in every page. Add the fact that it has the potential to become a great resource for new illustrators and for the Australian book industry, and we can say without doubt that this is the best thing that has happened to the Australian children's book cyber-world in 2003... An example for other society of authors!

• The site is an initiative of the Society of Book Illustrators and Books Illustrated, supported by the Australia Council for the Arts. In other words, it's serious stuff!
• Every illustrator featured has a dedicated page, with a selection of images, contact information and a short description of his/her style, favorite subjects and age group s/he mostly works for;
• It was launched in August 2003 with 80 illustrators. New artists are selected and added every six months - look here for how the selection process works (remember: you have to be Australian);
• You can search the site by age group, subject, style, and even keywords, or you can browse the artists' pages, but if you just want to be charmed go right to the random slideshow, or download the screensaver (updated ever two months!)
