A UA Little Rock graduate student in gifted, creative, and talented education has achieved her lifelong dream of becoming an author with the recent publication of a children’s book inspired by her grandfather.
Krista Hinton, who is also the K-12 gifted and talented coordinator for Lavaca School District, wrote “Grandpa’s Good News Garage,” that was published by Lighthouse Publishing in March. The book for children ages 3-8 tells the story of a grandfather who takes old and worn out objects that others consider as useless and transforms them into something new.
This is the cover of Krista Hinton’s new children’s book, “Grandpa’s Good News Garage.”
