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 


Tinkling

Adjustments.jpeg

One time, when I did swoop in to save Kay from a potential disaster, I startled her so much that she tinkled in her pants.
The night before, I was chasing a mouse, and it got away by squeezing its chubby little butt right into the end of the hose. I waited for hours thinking he would eventually back out, but he never did.
When I saw Kay bend over to drink from the hose (which in itself is a potential gastric nightmare waiting to happen), I screeched and flew in and slapped that hose right out of her hand. Could you imagine if she turned the hose on and a mouse ran out? She would have done more than just tinkle in her pants.
