About the author - Marijke Lilleike
The Planet of us is author Marijke Lilleike’s debut children’s book. After a long career in a corporate environment, Johannesburg based Marijke has now settled into the role of Children’s author. She is mom to three children Joshua, Daniel and Leila. Inspiration for this first book came from being a mother as she had input from her young children on the characters and storyline. Her niece Micaela Maass did all the stunning hand drawn illustrations.
The people of the planet of Us imagine all sorts of fearsome things about their neighbours hidden behind the Great Wall of Divide. It takes the actions of one brave child to change their world. The Planet of Us is a children’s story that teaches about equality and sharing.
The Planet of us beautifully illustrates how people can live together in harmony, regardless of perceived differences. The book was published in June 2017 and has been well received with many requests for a follow up book.
