Every great author started out as a kid. Before the best sellers, fan clubs, and beloved stories we know today, the world's most celebrated writers had regular-kid problems just like you.

Random quest folks. Is there such a thing as a book publisher or agent who specializes in KID AUTHORS, i.e 12 year old author? Does it matter? Crazy talented kid who writes poetry. Any intel would be very much appreciated. @bungarsargon @HilzFuld @ShamiraGelbman @ChavieLieber https://t.co/RItZEYm3o3
"This is an ideal gift for aspiring young writers who may need proof that even the most famous authors had to start somewhere."--Shelf Awareness for Readers
"[Kid Authors] was full of real information, but the author made it fun and funny ... I would recommend this book for all people who read books and want to know interesting information about authors, and also for people who want to be authors themselves."--Michael, age 9
Praise for Kid Presidents:
"Just like history class, only hilarious."--Tim Federle, author of Better Nate Than Ever
"With cartoonish illustrations that will attract fans of Jeff Kinney's The Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Rachel Renée Russell's The Dork Diaries, this informative offering leaves no presidential childhood rock unturned."--School Library Journal
"Caricatures by Horner are whimsical and funny, a good match for a book that demonstrates that every president started life as a goofy, regular kid."--Booklist
Praise for Kid Artists:
"Impressively diverse."-Booklist
"For budding artists, here's a heartening reminder that 17 unconventional greats--not to mention all the rest--started out as children too." --Kirkus Reviews
"Memorably weird childhood moments--Jackson Pollock accidentally had part of a finger chopped off and then eaten by a rooster--are likely to stick with readers, as will Horner's impish cartoons."-Publishers Weekly
Praise for Kid Athletes:
"Outstanding...Inspiring and entertaining, Kid Athletes isn't just for sports fans."--Booklist, starred review
