"Moroccan writers do not base their works for children and youth on psychological studies." This, according to Le Matin, was the conclusion of a conference that was recently organized in Rabat by the Moroccan ministry of culture.
Although there are many publishing houses and supervising committees, the actual scientific research on the psychology and mentality of children is negligible. Consequently, 96% of the books and magazines directed for Moroccan children and youth are edited in the West, explained prominent writer, Larbi Benjelloun.
