- Brought together here for the first time, the Woodfield Lectures
are an annual exploration of the fascinating relationship between
children and their books. Each of the contributors to the volume
holds a unique position in the development of modern children's
literature: as such, the book is a distillation of their experiences
working in the field of literature and library services for young
people, and makes stimulating reading for anyone wishing to share
the insights of others in this highly diverse field.
