Abstract

What is the relationship and the importance of illustrated children's literature in the process of literary literacy? This is the initial question that led to the present research, entitled: "Children's illustrated literature and literary literacy: some points for reflection based on the analysis of the work Bichos Poéticos (Poetic Creatures) by Roberto Guimarães and Ana Starling". With the general objective of analyzing the constitution process of literary literacy from the work with illustrated Children's Literature. Besides investigating the concept of literary literacy; identifying characteristics of illustrated children's literature and analyzing literary literacy practices based on illustrated children's literature, and thus understanding how illustrated children's literature can be important in the constitution of a reading subject that is inserted in reading practices not only as one who decodes words, but one who knows how to read the world. Furthermore, we seek to understand how to promote literary literacy by making children learn how meanings are constructed in the relationship between written text and illustration. In order to achieve these objectives, we analyzed the work Bichos Poéticos by Roberto Guimarães and Ana Starling, in addition to a bibliographical research in which authors such as Cosson (2021); Soares (2020); Kleiman (2005); Zilberman (1985) and Candido (2011) among others, led us to conclude that illustrated children's literature is of great importance for the constitution of a subject who has reading mastery, is critical and able to understand social practices.
