Literary Agents run across people every day and everywhere who want to write children's books. (Seriously: The checker at the supermarket. The customs officer at the airport. THE DENTIST.) After all, we all have memories of books that made an impression on us as kids, and maybe even changed our lives -- and who wouldn't want to have that same profound impact on children of today? Plus, books for children are so SIMPLE to write, right? Well... maybe not so much.
