Join us to meet Nicola Daly and explore the exciting world of children’s books in Aotearoa/New Zealand. This presentation features the trends and themes in these books and introduces both established and new authors/illustrators. These trends include a significant presence and emphasis on books highlighting Māori culture and language and the publication of many dual language picturebooks.

Dr. Daly, a visiting Fulbright Scholar, is a senior lecturer at Te Hononga, the School of Curriculum and Pedagogy in the Faculty of Education, where she focuses on language learning and children’s literature. Her research explores New Zealand picturebooks and the linguistic landscapes of dual language picturebooks. Her books include Children’s Literature in Multilingual Classrooms and Children’s Literature in a Multiliterate World.
