Biography

I have worked in the field of children's literature and literacy for over 25 years, starting with my undergraduate thesis on Mexican children's literature in the 1980s at the Universidad Iberoamericana in Mexico City and then during my doctoral work at the University of Cambridge on adolescent readers and YA literature. While in Cambridge, together with Morag Styles, I pioneered research into children’s response to picturebooks and visual literacy and our co-authored book, Children Reading Picturebooks: Interpreting visual texts (2003/2016) is now considered a classic study in this area. I moved to Glasgow in 2004 and when I joined the School of Education I helped to create the MEd in Children's Literature and Literacies which has now been running for nearly ten years. I now lead an Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters in Children's Literature, Media and Culture (IMCLMC). In the last decade, my research projects have had a focus on migration and displacement (Visual Journeys and Journeys from Images to Words) and I built on these to develop a programme for migrant readers through the Salas de Lectura project in the Mexican Ministry of Culture (2016-2018). Overall, I have developed my expertise by bridging, on one hand, the theory and analysis of text and, on the other, reading and reader response. I have worked with both young adult (YA) texts and also with picturebooks in research with participants of different ages and across different countries, especially in Mexico and I have published widely in both English and Spanish. In 2022 and 2024 I was on the jury for the Hans Christian Andersen Award, International Board on Books for Children and Young People (IBBY).

“We read books to find out who we are. What other people, real or imaginary, do and think and feel... is an essential guide to our understanding of what we ourselves are and may become.”
Ursula K. LeGuin

Research interests

‌‌‌I am interested in the following areas of research and teaching: Children's literature and literacies particularly in relation to picturebooks; YA literature; reader-response, Latin America, migration and  intercultural communities.

I welcome enquiries from postgraduate students  interested in any of these topics.

As Programme Leader for the International Master in Children's Literature, Media and Culture (IMCLMC) I also welcome enquiries about the programme. 

I am particularly interested in children's meaning-making strategies in relation to verbal-visual interaction which is the focus of much of my research. I have delivered lectures, seminars and keynotes in my areas of interest, both in the UK and internationally, to researchers, practitioners and policy-makers.   My work also involves international collaboration, especially with Spain and Latin America but also with colleagues in the USA and elsewhere.

My current research builds on the following projects:

(PI) Educational Peacebuilding in Medellin and Acapulco: Understanding the role of education, culture and learning in responding to crises (British Academy GCRF)

(PI) AHRC-GCRF Network  'Children's Literature in Critical Contexts of Displacement: Exploring how story and arts-based practices create safe spaces for displaced children and young people'
