About this blog

Welcome to the Curriculum Centre’s blog on children’s literature. The blog is designed for trainee teachers in the School of Education at the University of Brighton and aims to keep students up to date with new and recommended children’s books for use in their teaching practice. The blog also aims to encourage the use of children’s literature to make links across all subject areas.
