So great to see @ILoveCopyright presenting her new YA research at #Kidsconf20 - three times more YA authors of colour since 2006! 2019 most represented year! And homegrown talent and UK YA is on the rise, which is everything #BookTrustRepresents is working for!

I'm also thinking about @YAIdentities's 'Can I see me in this book? Can I see you? Does it matter? (It does!)'
There's much to talk about later!
