Have studied in a variety of fields including psycholinguistics, memory, text and discourse analysis. Presently concentrating on modern children's literature with an emphasis on stylistics, translation, picturebooks. Current specific interests are poetry in children's literature and translation of children's literature into minority languages.

My current research focusses on two main areas. First, I am studying poetry in children's literature, focussing on the various types of poetry in children's literature and on the interactions of different media in the poetic forms. Second, I have a long term project looking at translation of children's literature into minority languages. I am studying this through the lens of translation studies theory, child rights, and language learning.
