The Library kids have gone mad for it! My comic-drawing Library kids (which is most of them) are drawing their own doughnut characters, fishfingers with personalities, vegetables with sass… you have fired so many imaginations 🍩🔥

Still have it somewhere, along with all the issues & the annual. Prize possessions

Can’t wait to read it Emily! 🥳

Haha! Love this

Need to add my review to it this weekend- I loved it! I put it on order for our School Library today because I know my readers will be mad for it too. Your descriptions of the creepy book were so delightfully vile 👌

Hooray! So glad you’re here 💕💕💕

Love him! I’ve just started querying agents with a CB that features a character whose name is ‘Shifty’ Steve Sparrow (inspired partly by Flash Harry from the St Trinian’s films) and this is exactly the kind of expression I imagine he’d pull.

Comics. Amulet type adventure series and British titles with modern kids in them.

This looks brilliant! 👌💕

Carson Ellis illustrated the poem for this beautiful picture book edition a few years ago. It’s wonderful 💕

This one isn't, drat, I wonder if I know anyone with access... link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Well some of it appears to be on open access if you look at individual essays? I just clicked on the one in this issue about heroines and mothers in Carnegie winners and accessed the whole text? 🤞

Reflections is a brilliant book and DWJ writes beautifully in it

This might not be what you’re looking for and it’s not free to access but there’s the academic journal Children’s Literature in Education. A long time ago, when I worked in a University Library I used to enjoy reading things in it from time to time. link.springer.com/journal/1058...
