Alex G Griffiths

Alex G. Griffiths is a children’s author, illustrator, and graphic designer known for creating imaginative picture books with a distinctive artistic style. He lives in Canada and is recognized for his hand-drawn illustrations, often using pen and ink with textured, slightly rough lines that give his work a unique and lively feel.

His debut book, The Bug Collector (2019), tells the story of a young boy named George who becomes fascinated with collecting insects after visiting a museum with his grandfather. As he gathers more and more bugs, he eventually learns an important lesson about caring for nature and why insects should be left in their natural environment.

Griffiths’ writing is simple, engaging, and meaningful, often combining storytelling with educational themes such as environmental awareness and respect for living things. Because he both writes and illustrates his books, his stories and artwork work closely together to create a fun and memorable reading experience for young children.
