International Research in Children’s Literature
deadline for submissions: 
Saturday, November 15, 2025

The recent IRSCL 2025 Congress, titled “Borders, Migration, and Liminality in Children’s Literature,” held in Salamanca (Spain), offered a unique opportunity to examine these themes from a multiplicity of perspectives — literary, aesthetic, cultural, linguistic and pedagogical. Building on the dialogues initiated at the congress, this Special Issue invites contributions that explore how children’s and young adult literature (and related media) negotiate, represent, and theorize experiences of migration and border-crossing, and how they open up liminal spaces for the redefinition of childhood in a changing world.
