In fact, if you go to the Magic Treehouse website, here's how they describe one of the more recent books in the series: Meet Jackie Robinson and solve a mystery in the #1 bestselling Magic Tree House chapter book series! So it isn't just users here that refer to these types of books by these terms.

I would guess that this isn't new terminology, but like 4691mls mentioned, it has become more popular in the last fifteen years or so. As a kid, I don't remember chapter books either.
We just told people the book we were reading or what genre we liked.
