Welcome to the DCU MA in Children's and Young Adult Literature Blog

Welcome to the DCU MA in Children's and Young Adult Literature Blog. We hope you enjoy reading about our research, events, and all children's and young adult literature-related things here. 

In his first blog post, Professor Peter Hunt, our Adjunct Professor here at DCU, introduces the wonders (and oddities) of Children's Literature Land.

Professor Hunt also writes about the significance of names (and name changes) for those with a stake in children's literature and about SENSITIVITY READERS: Moral panic or doing it right? – a recent panel discussion organised by The Centre for Research in Children's and Young Adult Literature in conjunction with our MA in Children's and Young Adult Literature Programme. 

In 'The Person in Seat L1 Seems to be an Adult', Professor Hunt writes about 'one of the basic puzzles of studying Children's Literature' in the context of children's film: 'how to square the circle of how children and adults react to the same material.' 

Keep an eye on the blog for more!
