She definitely writes adult books. Just because she writes many stories with a child's perspective, her themes are definitely adult. Though, since she deals with a lot of "coming-of-age" issues, I'd say some could be good for someone in their late teens.

Drawing heavily upon her childhood experiences and ethnic heritage Sandra Cisneros (born 1954) creates characters who are distinctly Hispanic and often isolated from mainstream American culture by emphasizing dialogue and sensory imagery over traditional narrative structures.

Since her book "House on Mango Street" deals with a Latina girl growing up amongst poverty & alienation (things she drew from her own life), I would say that is a children's book.
