We’re already nearly half way through #WorldKidLitMonth but there’s still plenty more to come.
This week, Ruth Ahmedzai Kemp talks to Patsy Aldana of Aldana Books; editor Alison Weiss tells Lawrence Schimel about The End by Mats Strandberg, the lead title from new middle grade and young adult imprint Arctis, and which was translated by Judith Kiros. Then Alexandra Büchler will take us to the Asian Festival of Children’s Content, and we’ll have book reviews from Wales, Chile and Finland!
