children's author
Kids' book creator
A children's author writes books intended for young readers, from picture books for toddlers to novels for teenagers.
The term encompasses a wide range: Dr. Seuss was a beloved children's author, She's a children's author who writes middle-grade fantasy.
The possessive form emphasizes the audience rather than the content—children's authors write *for* children, not necessarily *about* them.
