Useful resources for Picturebook enthusiasts

This very useful resource about picture books has been put together by Dr. Mary Roche who is a Senior Lecturer in Education at St. Patrick’s College, Thurles, Ireland. She describes herself as an author, bookworm and educator who supports critical thinking, critical literacy, picturebooks, philosophy in the classroom, action research and reflective practice. Her book Developing Children's Critical Thinking through Picturebooks published in 2014 received many positive reviews:

 "The voices of children and teachers, richly engaged with picturebooks, resound enthrallingly in this enthusiastic, thoughtful and superbly well-informed account of productive classroom practice." (UKLA Academic Book Award Panel)
