"This survey and report is the result of a pilot project and survey of the reading interests and information use of South African children and young adults.

ormation usage. The project surveyed a representative sample of over two thousand learners in the age group 10 to 16 of South African learners from Grades 5 to 10 by means of a detailed questionnaire. The survey focuses on identifying why and how young people in South Africa choose books (and other texts such as comics and magazines), as understanding this process may help those involved in writing, publishing and providing texts, from comics to novels and electronic publications. The survey also tried to find ways of identifying what kind of material is most suitable for different types of readers. It was one of the goals of the study to provide a better understanding of the relationship between reading and attitudes to a range of topical social issues such as AIDS and pregnancy; to examine the ways in which children and young adults encounter and choose what to read; to provide information about the reading habits and information usage of children and young adults of different age, sex, class, ethnic background, geographical location and educational sector; and to study the influence and effect on reading of new media such as electronic texts."

"The idea for this helpful handbook was inspired by two workshops for writers of children’s books held in Tanzania and Uganda in January-February 2000. The workshops were organized by the National Book Development Council of Tanzania and the Book Development Council of Uganda, under the UNESCO/DAN

IDA Basic Learning Materials Initiative, with the aim of assisting the countries to enliven their publishing industries by promoting local writing and the production of attractive children’s books. The Handbook draws on some of the lessons learned in the Tanzania and Uganda workshops. It does not pretend to provide a detailed and comprehensive guide, but aims to present some basic principles that should be taken into account when writing for children. There is also a useful checklist of ‘dos and don’ts’ for writers of picture story books to make sure nothing vitally important has been left out, and some stories that were written during the workshop for writers are also included."
