For those of you writing for children, here's some snippets with links from Publishers Weekly.

Wells Arms Leaving Bloomsbury to Start Agency
Victoria Wells Arms, the founding editor of Bloomsbury Children’s Books USA, is leaving the company at the end of the month to start her own literary agency. Wells Arms started the U.S. division of the children’s publisher in 2001 and, for the past five years, has served as editor-at-large there. Her new agency, Wells Arms Literary, is expected to be up and running by September.
