We are pleased to invite you to join the on-line forum which we hope will promote a lively discussion about the place of children’s literature in teaching English as a foreign language, and the multiplicity of issues surrounding it.

If you follow this link:

http://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/literature/blog

you will find that Alan Pulverness, one of the ELT world’s leading exponents of literature in language teaching, has posted a challenge to us all, called ‘Draw the Line’.  We earnestly hope that you will join in the debate.

Over the next few months top ELT practitioners and authors and poets will alternately start the discussions.  Controversial author of books for teenagers, Melvin Burgess, will be appearing in January.
