Karina Kost

Karina, a resident of Bergen, Norway, discovered her calling as a writer of therapeutic children's fairy tales when her daughter, Anna, needed help with bedtime struggles and life's challenges. Like any devoted mother, Karina longed to create a world of comfort and understanding for her child, particularly during bedtime. Drawing inspiration from Anna's own character and habits, Karina began crafting enchanting tales featuring charming characters. These stories became a soothing presence in Anna's life, helping her overcome a series of childhood challenges—fear of the dark, bedtime reluctance, an insatiable sweet tooth, and the necessity of brushing her teeth. Over time, Karina penned ten beloved tales, each addressing a different issue Anna faced. These stories not only aided Anna but also taught her essential life lessons. When Anna turned five, Karina felt a deep desire to share these therapeutic tales with others. Karina published these tales, complete with charming watercolor illustrations, to help other children navigate their own difficulties. Her stories became a source of comfort and guidance, resonating with families far and wide.
