JKR to write more children's books

This according to a yahoo article:

She says she's going to write for a slightly younger demographic
than HP and has several stories near completion. She also
doesn't rule out going back into the magical world, but not for
Harry.
Honestly, I have to agree with the reviews of The Casual
Vacancy. I just don't think Jo writes adults well, not that her
writing is bad, it's just I find her adults so uninteresting and
almost too ordinary. It's weird because I didn't feel that way
about any of the adults in HP.

I think the difference is, we never saw the adults in HP from
their own perspective, it was always from Harry's. So even if
they might be dull if it were written from their point of view,
they weren't dull because Harry didn't find them dull.
Other than the teenagers, The Casual Vacancy is, like, an entire
book of Dursleys. Without Hogwarts.
