About EION Books

---

EION Books is a children’s publishing house dedicated to stories that reflect, affirm, and respect young readers. We exist to publish books that honor children as capable thinkers, storytellers, and learners—both in the stories they read and the ones they imagine.

Our work centers thoughtful storytelling, cultural awareness, and care for how stories are created and shared. Every title published by EION Books is selected with intention and guided by a clear editorial standard.

Children’s books shape how young readers understand themselves and the world around them. At EION Books, we believe representation, care, and honesty in storytelling are not optional—they are essential.

We publish stories that reflect the diverse lives children live and the questions they carry. Our focus is not on trends or volume, but on creating a catalog families, educators, and communities can trust.

EION Books approaches publishing as a long-term commitment to quality and alignment. We work collaboratively with authors whose stories reflect our publishing philosophy and contribute meaningfully to our catalog.

Our process is intentional and selective. Each book we publish is developed with care, supported with purpose, and released with respect for both the story and its readers.

EION Books is led by Paula Banks, an award-winning children’s author and educator whose work centers storytelling, confidence, and cultural literacy. Paula founded EION Books to create space for children’s stories that are thoughtful, representative, and rooted in care.

Under her leadership, EION Books continues to build a publishing home grounded in purpose, responsibility, and long-term impact.

EION Books is committed to growing a catalog that reflects the evolving world children live in while maintaining the standards that define our work. As we expand our publishing initiatives and partnerships, our focus remains the same: to publish stories that matter and to steward them with intention.
