“In many countries in the world, … it is a goal to promote scientific literacy for citizens, although among under-represented groups, science learning divorced from everyday life alienates many children.” (p.6)

This blog is a kind of electronic storage locker for ideas and quotes that inform my research... literary research into fiction for young adults (with a special focus on New Zealand fiction). Kiwis are producing amazing literature for younger readers, but it isn't getting the academic appreciation it deserves. I hope readers of this blog can make use of the material I gather and share by way of promoting our fiction. Cheers!
