One of the most important books we’ve been working on at @OuidaBooks is a memoir written by Mrs Remilekun Taylor Kuti, wife of Afrobeat legend Fela Anikulapo-Kuti.

It was like breaking open a time capsule to find flourishes of love, hope, and fragments of a broken heart.

17 Nigerian artists to start course in illustrating on 16 Sept, tutored by @Mimaster_Illo, facilitated by @BoChildrensBook. Prize for best artist is amazing!

I spoke to @guardian about BookStorm, @simonesoasis & the amazing pic books we’re working on.
