Inis magazine: issue 41, Summer 2014
Inis is the magazine of Children's Books Ireland. Within these pages you will find features and articles on Irish and international children's books as well as in-depth reviews of new titles for children and teenagers. With its range of expert contributors, this is a key resource for teachers, writers, illustrators, librarians, parents/guardians and everyone interested in children's books.
"In 2014 Children’s Books Ireland celebrates its eighteenth birthday – a landmark of the utmost importance, in human terms, and something to celebrate. Reaching eighteen doesn’t immediately make a teenager an adult, and the journey has not just its remarkable achievements but its challenges too."
