The launch will take place at 3pm Friday 6th June on Zoom where we will have a roundtable discussion with the co-editors – Dr Patricia Kennon and Dr Siobhán Morrissey – and contributors, to discuss the representation of race, ethnicity, and Irishness in Irish picturebooks, YA fiction, film, and Irish-language literature for young people.
