Natalie Kinsey-Warnock, Author, Writer, Artist & Vermont Resident Natalie Kinsey-Warnock grew up on a dairy farm in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont where her Scottish ancestors settled in the early 1800s.

Natalie loves walking and sleeping out at night and continues to climb the hills near her home to watch the Northern Lights and listen to the bears and owls. Natalie has enjoyed many of the experiences she writes about, including having had a pack of coyotes run by her, yapping and yeowling, just as she's described in On a Starry Night. |
On a Starry Night Natalie Kinsey-Warnock |
In On a Starry Night anything can happen--and does. Nighthawks swoop, and the dark woods rattle with crickets and frogs, making us look over our shoulder for the things that hide behind dark trees. But the same night that can seem so scary can be magical--and soon we're flying higher that any nighthawk, sailing across the sky with stars and planets spinning by us like ribbon from a spool!
Luminous paintings and words evoke all the wonder of night as they tell the story of one young girl who wraps herself in the magic that night brings. Hardcover Signed Editions $ 17.95 |
The Bear that Heard Crying Natalie Kinsey-Warnock |
The Bear that Heard Crying is a true story about Sarah Whitcher. Sarah was only three years old when, in June 1783, she got lost in the woods near Warren, New Hampshire. For four days, people from surrounding towns looked for her. Just when the search was to be called off, a Mr. Heath had a dream about finding Sara. He showed up and, following the guidance of his dream, found her. When she was older, Sarah wrote down what she remembered of those days in the woods and the "big black dog" that found her. Many of the searchers wrote down their accounts. It was these accounts that the author's sister, Helen, found while doing genealogical research in an old history of Warren, New Hampshire.

In the Language of Loons Natalie Kinsey-Warnock |

It was the summer he started to run and realized he could be good at something if he tried hard enough. When school started that fall, even though some sad changes came as well, he was a new Arlis, one who was able to stand on his own. Hardcover Signed Editions $ 17.99 |
