Hey, you! So nice of you to click to learn more about me, Kristina Henson.
I live in Upstate New York with my daughter, a Golden Retriever, and two cats. Before writing and illustrating my two books, One Hundred Birds Telling One Hundred Little Stories and Letters to Lily, I maintained a blog and regularly published personal essays while working in the graphic design industry by day and devoting the majority of the rest of my time doing what I love the most — writing and creating books. I love everything about books. With all that’s inside of them—the things I can learn, the places I can travel to, the characters I can fall in love with—what isn’t there to love?
I can define myself by being so many things: a mother, a daughter, a sister, an artist, an author, a designer. But most importantly—and what I remind myself of often—is that I am a woman who needs to create. 
I hope you enjoy a peek into my studio and life. 
Kristina

Anne was Kay's best friend. She missed being able to stand on her front porch and see Anne's house. She knew who was home by what lights were on and she could see the reflection from the television when Anne's Dad was watching the evening news. It was reassuring to know that someone was always close by. The old neighborhood was full of kids and families just like hers. The view from the front porch at the new house was cornfields as far as her eyes could see. The backyard led to hundreds of acres of woods. I loved it. It was an owls paradise. Kay missed home.
