Talespinner

The twice-yearly publication of the journal Talespinner is significant for theĀ Children's Literature staff, students and alumni. It contains contributions from a wide range of specialists in children's literature and is also an avenue for the publication of research produced in partial fulfilment of the Diploma in Children's Literature.

Talespinner is available by subscription for a minimal cost to ensure research is widely available for both parents and professionals. Each issue attempts to encompass that the needs and interests of parents and professional across the educational sectors (from early childhood learning centres to the secondary schools) are met.

Each issue may include:

  • an editorial
  • feature articles
  • research reports
  • comments
  • classroom units
  • detailed book analyses
  • interviews with writers and illustrators
  • entertainment.

For a list of past research activity, inclusive of Talespinner publications, view the Research and Publications page.
