WRITING FOR CHILDREN

on BBC Home Service Basic

† by ALAN BLAIKLEY
What kind of people are writing for children today? Why do they choose their particular audience? To what extent are they satisfying the requirements of children and the adults responsible for their reading? How natural is the step from juvenile to adult fiction? These are some of the questions investigated by Alan Blaikley in interviews with various authors, a children's librarian, a critic, a magazine editor, and others.
