About this listen

Children are the future and children’s literacy in schools is therefore one of our greatest societal concerns. And so, as celebrations draw to a close on another World Book Day and co-host of the podcast Johanna Clarke steps away from the studio to welcome a child of her own, we speak to writers Ian Billings and Davina Hamilton on the role of children’s writers in schools. We also hear from Deborah Maclaren all about her Love Reading for Kids initiative as she teaches us what parents, carers, teachers and librarians can do to support children’s writing in schools and how writers can become involved.

This podcast is brought to you thanks to the the kind sponsorship of the Authors' Licensing & Collecting Society.
