Day 1 Afternoon Session of the Asian LitCon x RAP NatCon 2024

I finally met Teacher Portia’s students whom I had the pleasure of speaking to last January 10, 2024 via Zoom. I shared with them trends and movements in children’s literature here and abroad. A group picture was necessary!
They presented the paper they wrote in class, “Beyond the Cover: Exploring Parents’ and Teachers’ Views on Sensitive Subjects in Philippine Children’s Literature”. One of their findings relate to the recent report in the Philippine Readership Survey that adults seldom read for leisure and at the very least, at stage that’s too late to nurture the joy and happiness in reading.
Congratulations, Carmen, Reggie, Rainier, Arlyn, Chrystille, Carissa, Leniza, Mariella, Shannine, Jessica and of course, Teacher Portia!
