Two of my favorite authors - Roald Dahl and Shel Silverstein (RIP, guys!) - have seperate titles for adults and children. I cannot think of any other others that follow this model, but I'm curious to know which ones I am overlooking.

Thanks!

Frank Peretti is a wonderful Christian author (though it's easy to forget about the Christian part when you really have your nose in the book). I know he has written some adult novels, and I am sure he has written kids.

Isaac Asimov sometimes wrote science fiction for the juvenile market. One example is "Lucky Star and the Rings of Saturn".

Well, they haven't done the adult scene, but check out 'Alice" by Woopie Goldberg, and ";The Saga of Baby Divine" by Bette Midler.

Clive Barker. Lot's of great stuff for adults. Plus he has several great reads for kids (i.e. the "Abarat" books and "The Thief of Always").
