Kid Lit HQ
Here at MS READaTHON HQ we feel it is so important to really understand what goes into making a good book. There are teams of people behind every book and every author making sure that every single detail is correct and perhaps most importantly, ensuring that all of you hear about how good the book is!
So, this year we have asked some of Ireland's leading children's literature professionals to answer some questions about the wonderful literary world. Hopefully you will enjoy reading their interesting (and witty) responses... and you might get a few ideas of what to read next!
They are all very good friends of the MS READaTHON and have been tireless cheerleaders for the campaign for many years so take a look at what they have to say and prepare to be wowed!!
Happy reading!
