Children's+Literature

[|Children's Literature] is broadly defined as texts intended for young audiences up to about the age of twelve. The usual definition refers to novels, picture books, poetry, and films, but additionally comics, plays, magazines, television, and texts authored by young writers, including fanfiction should also be included. Each of these genres shares the primary intended audience and allows for reading and analysis by children and critics to understand the history and development of childhood and child culture.
