Edgar's Children's Literature Blog Page

a. Who is your target audience? Why is this group your target audience?
|
Parents and fellow librarians of young children are my blog's target audience, as the blog contains in-depth analyses (with grown-up words) of children's books. My reviews hope to inspire readers to find the richness in books so that they will want to pick up a book, then another, until it becomes habit. |
b. What strategies would you use to help your target audience to access your blog? Why would you use those strategies?
|
As a librarian, I can promote my blog in a number of ways: By word of mouth I can share it with library visitors who are looking for book recommendations, and by posting links in appropriate online venues (forums and websites related to books for children & young adults), others will be able to find it. |
c. How will you continue to contribute to the knowledge in the field of children's literature?
|
I hope to continue to compile book reviews for any other titles I find worth sharing. By doing so, our cohort can continue to access each other's blogs to get insight into a particular book's strengths or weaknesses even after the program is complete.
