Currently Looking For
Bunmi Ishola is a senior editor with WaterBrook Children’s, an imprint of Random House Children’s Books, acquiring for readers ages 0-18 (board books to YA).WaterBrook Children’s seeks a diversity of voices from self-identified Christian authors. To learn more about the imprint, please visit the link below. I’m looking first and foremost for great storytelling. I am drawn to stories that show the intersection of faith with everyday life, books that help kids think critically and holistically about their faith, books that help families jump-start faith conversations with their kids, or books that show concrete examples of how God moves and works in the world and in our lives. [Please note: Content does not always have to be explicitly faith-based or have scriptural content, as long as the author’s Christian faith informs the writing/has a faith connection that the author is willing to be open about in marketing and publicity opportunities.] I try to keep an open mind (as you never know what I may fall in love with!), but here’s what is at the TOP of my current MSWL: Topics that intrigue me: I am NOT looking for: Fun facts about me:
