Margaretha Hendrikus Gerardus Maria (Margriet) Heymans was a Dutch children's book writer and illustrator. She attended the school for art and crafts in Den Bosch. She wrote and illustrated her first picture book Het poppenfeest (1971), a flip book, together with her sister Annemie Heymans.

For example, she received the Woutertje Pieterse Prize and a Zilveren Griffel for Lieveling, boterbloem (1988). When asked which animals she cannot draw, she answers: "Horses. They are not clumsy enough; they are too perfect. I can draw ponies, because they are monsters, but horses are too beautiful. I cannot draw them.
