Holman's foray into the world of children's books began with his twin brother Jack. They grew up in Vancouver, British Columbia, and first began writing and illustrating books together in the third grade. They are the twin powers behind the board book series Star Wars Epic Yarns, which offers a lightspeed take on each of three original Star Wars movies, and Cozy Classics, which abridges classics like "Pride and Prejudice" and "Moby Dick" into 12 words and 12 needle-felted illustrations.
"Great Job, Mom!" and "Great Job, Dad!" are Holman's first solo kidlit projects.
Holman is a former middle-school teacher. He has an education degree, a masters degree (architecture history) and a law degree, all from the University of British Columbia. Holman currently practices law while finding time to make children's books.
Holman and Jack's unique artwork combines needle felting, scale-model set-making and photography. Their work has been exhibited at Bologna Children's Book Fair Illustrators Exhibition (2013), The Original Art exhibition in New York (Society of Illustrators, 2015), and the National Museum of Play. Their work has also been featured in the New York Times, People, the Wall Street Journal, the Huffington Post, The Telegraph, New York Magazine, The Paris Review, Parents magazine, American Craft magazine, CBC, and The Globe and Mail.
Holman and Jack are also the creators of the Google Doodle honoring the 148th birthday of Laura Ingalls Wilder (of "Little House on the Prairie" fame), which appeared on February 7, 2015.
Holman lives with his wife and two children in Vancouver, Canada.
