The groundroots campaign to celebrate world literature for young people in September, World Kid Lit Month, is growing year by year. Media coverage helps!
There is a press pack here with free graphics you can use, including for Instagram.
Please tweet us @worldkidlit or email us (worldkidlit@gmail.com) if you’d like help with a feature about global or translated children’s books, or #WorldKidLitMonth in particular.
