About this speaker
Ella is a senior commissioning editor at Piccadilly Press and Hot Key Books, imprints of Bonnier Books UK, where she works on children's fiction, from young fiction through to middle grade, teen and YA. She was previously an editor at Little Tiger, and throughout her career has worked with lots of talented writers, including Carnegie, Waterstones and Branford Boase award-winning author Nathanael Lessore, YA Book Prize shortlisted author Cynthia So, New York Times bestselling author Jordan Ifueko, and BBC zoologist and vet Jess French. She loves distinct voices, big concepts and characters you can root for. If a book makes her laugh or cry, it’s doing something right!
