Bin-A-Lake

By Michael Burdette

This picture book has been written especially for our future leaders, six to twelve year old humanoids. It is set in a remote place in the Australian outback. This place is not only unique, beautifully barren but has a distinctly earthy smell about it. It is a place of intrigue, secrecy and becomes home to the most unusual inhabitants. The story involves the incredible journey of one of our unique wild animals and some rather unusual friends. This beautiful story will guarantee to make you laugh, cringe and cry but most of all it ends in a way that will make all readers happy and impact the way you view wild animals forever.

Who is Michael Burdette?With reference to being a children’s author, he is unknown. Bin-A–Lake is his first published children’s book. Michael, has however, written six personalised books for specific children, where they are the main character. Writing books, however, is not new to Michael. He wrote, illustrated, and successfully published two business books, ‘Contemplate Your Business Navel’ and ‘The Fox, the Pig and the Owl’.Having served in the South African military, Michael went on to do mechanical and industrial electronics engineering before immigrating to Australia in February 1883. From there he went on to become a business turnaround expert and from 1990 was successfully self-employed. It was during this period where his passion for writing evolved.Michael has always been a great storyteller with many children over the years enthralled by his African tales. He has a passion for native Australian animals, birds, and critters. As a self-taught artist, Michael illustrates all his own work.Michael is not one of those writers who are ‘just having a go’ at writing, he has attended various courses in children’s writing through recognised education institutions in the USA, UK, and Australia.Bin-A–Lake, first written in 2005, has taken ten years to get to the publishing stage with many iterations. It is only one story in a series and there are another five stories just waiting to be refined, honed, and published.Rather than retiring, Michael is fiercely determined to keep working, and there is no better way to keep occupied than to write and illustrate picture books and chapter books for children.
