Kristina Stephenson trained as a set and costume designer at the Central School of Art and Design in London. She worked in the theatre for many years before moving into the world of children's television. Wanting to stay at home after the birth of her first child, she turned her hand to illustrating children's books. Which she did in between nappy changes and nursery rhymes and often late at night while her baby was sleeping.It was when her second child was born that she began to write her own stories. Her first book 'Sir Charlie Stinky Socks - The Really Big Adventure' was inspired by her son, Charlie when he was 3. The idea then developed from the adventures the family made up and acted out, about a brave, kind alternative little knight. The real Sir Charlie is now a teenager but is still Kristina's first port of call when it comes to plot twists and editorial advice. Kristina based her second picture book series - Molly Maybe - on the wild and wonderful imaginings and amazing antics of her daughter, who - when she was six - liked to view the world (and the neighbours) from her make shift tree house at the end of the garden. Kristina works closely with her husband, who is a musician. Together they create interactive musical events based on each new book. And with their old VW camper van, BRU, packed with puppets and props, they enjoy touring the country, taking their shows to festivals, schools, and libraries. Kristina is currently writing a book for older children.
