Louise Jordan launches kids publishing company

Louise Jordan, the director of the Writers’ Advice Centre for Children’s Books, is launching her own publishing company to publish books for children.

Jordan said she decided to create Wacky Bee Books, based in South London, after seeing through her job a lot of good writers who weren’t getting published. “I was keen to publish those writers I was mentoring through the Advice Centre who I saw had great potential but weren’t being picked up by the bigger publishers. I look forward to working with all these talented writers and helping them find their readers.”

She will publish titles for children aged 5-8 (“Little Bee” books) and some for those aged 9-12 (“big bee” books) – and has two lined up for this year: Geronimo, The Dog Who Thinks He’s a Cat by Jessie Wall, illustrated by Emily Stanbury (p/b, £5.99), and The Great Farty Slob Beast by Charlie Farley (p/b, £6.99), illustrated by Joe Barleymow. Both will be released 1st October.
