About

– Kathy Hickson, Children’s Author –

Kathy Hickson is a storyteller at heart, whether she’s bringing characters to life on the stage, or spinning tales on the page. A passionate director and actor in community theatre, Kathy finds joy in imagination, play, and the magic of a well-told story. Her first book, Space Adventures, began as a simple poem— written just for her grandchildren— and grew into a journey of wonder, laughter, and love. Encouraged by fellow writers and the unwavering support of her family, Kathy now shares this little piece of the universe with readers young and young at heart, hoping to inspire dreams that reach the stars.

Writing Philosophy


Kathy believes stories should make children laugh, dream big, and feel seen. Her books are written with love and sprinkled with silliness, always aiming to delight both young readers and the grown-ups who read with them. She draws inspiration from everyday moments, childhood memories, and the delightful imaginations of the children in her life.
