About Us

& Our Kid Authors

Crystal (Mum) & Zoe

Hi, I’m Zoe, and I’m the kid behind Creative Kid Authors! I wrote my first book when I was 8 years old, and now I want to help other kids just like me bring their stories to life. Writing is so much fun, and it’s even better when you get to share your imagination and ideas with the world.

The idea for Creative Kid Authors started with my mum, Crystal. She’s an author too and has written books to help kids stay safe and learn about their bodies. Mum showed me a TikTok about a kid author, and we even bought her books to read together. That’s when I knew—I could do it too! Now I write and design my own books, with a little editing help from Mum.

At Creative Kid Authors, we believe every kid has a story worth telling. We’re here to inspire young storytellers, spread kindness, and encourage creativity, determination, and imagination. Whether you want to write about magical adventures, funny characters, or important messages, we’ll guide you from your first idea to publishing your very own book.

We’re building a community where kids can talk about their ideas, share tips, and cheer each other on. I’m excited to chat with you and hear all about the amazing stories you’re creating! Mum and I will also post blogs and make YouTube tutorials to help with everything from brainstorming to book publishing.

We believe books can spread love, kindness, and meaningful messages across the world, and we can’t wait to see what you create. Let’s write your story together!

We can’t wait to introduce our future authors! Stay tuned!
