Ursula Nordstrom (February 2, 1910 – October 11, 1988) was publisher and editor-in-chief of juvenile books at Harper & Row from 1940 to 1973. She is credited with presiding over a transformation in children's literature in which morality tales written for adult approval gave way to works that instead appealed to children's imaginations and emotions. She also authored the 1960 children's book The Secret Language. A collection of her correspondence was published in 1998, as Dear Genius: the Letters of Ursula Nordstrom.

rdfs:comment	Ursula Nordstrom (* 2. Februar 1910 in New York City; † 11. Oktober 1988) war eine US-amerikanische Verlegerin von Kinder- und Jugendliteratur. Bei Harper & Row publizierte sie Kinderbücher, die heute als Klassiker gelten, wie Where the Wild Things Are / Wo die wilden Kerle wohnen, Stuart Little oder Wilbur und Charlotte. Nordstrom war federführend bei einem Paradigmenwechsel in der Kinderliteratur: An die Stelle von moralischen Geschichten rückten Werke, die die Vorstellungskraft und die Emotionen von Kindern ansprachen.
