About the Author

Eliza Kinkz is a Tejana artist who’s never stopped viewing the world through the bright colors of her crayons, AND she’s even eaten a few too! She was the 2022 James Marshall Fellow and has illustrated many hilarious picture books, including Papá’s Magical Water-Jug Clock by Jesús Trejo, which won a Pura Belpré Illustration Honor. All her ridiculous scribbles burst straight from her heart, which is overflowing with joy . . . and probably a few crayon pieces. Eliza lives in Austin, Texas, with her family and her one true love, a huge bowl of queso. ¡Mistaco! is her author-illustrator debut, and you can spill all the frijoles to her at ElizaKinkz.com.
