Schmidt Kids

The Schmidt Kids—Barrett, Ethan, Austin, Taylor, Madelyn, and Everett—are six adventurous siblings from the United States, now living bilingually in Central America. Together, they form a dynamic creative team with a shared passion for storytelling, imagination, and unforgettable adventures. In 2025, they launched three original book series: Finding Walt, The Glostershiven Tapes, and Elevator to Elsewhere. Each sibling brings a unique voice to their work, blending humor, heart, and bold creativity into every page. When they're not writing, the Schmidt Kids are avid travelers and explorers, drawing inspiration from their real-life journeys through forests, volcanoes, beaches, and bustling cities. Their stories celebrate fun, friendship, and the thrill of the unknown.
