Books for Keeps

The latest edition of the UK children's literature journal Books for Keeps online is available http://booksforkeeps.co.uk/issue/187
I find it useful getting the email reminder.

Rosemary Stones' editorial mentions a couple of campaigns - Campaign for the Book organised by children's writer Alan Gibbons - see his blog as a forum for library advocacy - both school and public, http://alangibbons.net/ and for the Campaign Charter and signatories http://alangibbons.net/?page_id=206
Now the Bookseller has started a campaign to engage support for public libraries Fight 4 Libraries, and there is a Facebook site http://bit.ly/fight4libraries

Two obituaries of much loved authors - Dick King Smith and Brian Jacques, Michael Rosen on the language of the King James Bible, an interview with author Julie Hearn, a heap of reviews and much more...
