A World for Children

from Four Thought Hosted by BBC Radio 4

Daniel Hahn argues that as a society we would benefit from having more children's books translated into English. A translator himself, and author of a major book about children's literature, Daniel is concerned that few books are being translated today to sit alongside Tintin, Asterix and the Moomins. Producer: Giles Edwards.
