Kill Your Darlings - Why children’s and YA literature deserves more media attention

•••

It's my last Kill Your Darlings column for 2013! - Why children’s and YA literature deserves more media attention 

With all my children's/YA columns this year, I've tried to highlight what a wonderfully diverse, provocative, important and downright spectacular readership children's & young adult is. So with this column I thought I'd appeal to some common sense and provide hard numbers that further prove why more people should be sitting up and taking notice of these books.
