Welcome to MMS: A Journey Through Children’s Literature and Psychology
Hello, everyone!
I’m thrilled to welcome you to my blog, a space I’ve created to delve into the fascinating intersection of children’s literature and psychology. My name is Meg and I wear two hats that are deeply connected: I am a children’s book author and also a student specializing in children and youth psychology.
Who Am I?
As a children’s book author, I have had the pleasure of creating magical worlds that help spark imagination, teach life lessons, and foster a love for reading in young minds. My stories range from adventures in enchanted forests to valuable lessons on friendship and empathy.
In my academic life, I’m diving into the complexities of children and youth psychology. Understanding the young mind not only makes me a better storyteller but also enables me to share informed insights on the psychological impact of stories and how they shape our little ones.
What Aims to Achieve
This blog is a platform to explore and share:
The art of storytelling, especially tailored to children.
Psychological theories and practices that can help us understand young minds better.
Reviews and recommendations of books that are age-appropriate and psychologically enriching.
Interviews with experts in the fields of child psychology and children’s literature.
Practical tips for parents, educators, and anyone interested in the wholesome development of children.
I hope this space becomes a treasure trove of knowledge, a community for like-minded individuals, and a bridge between the worlds of storytelling and psychology. Whether you’re a parent looking for the next best book for your child, an educator seeking deeper understanding, or simply a lover of children’s literature, there’s something here for everyone.
I’m so excited for this journey and can’t wait to explore these themes with all of you. Stay tuned for weekly updates, and feel free to reach out with any topics you’d like to see covered or questions you might have.
Warm regards,
Meg
