A importância da literatura infantojuvenil na formação de um leitor crítico e pensante

Abstract

Children's literature plays a vital role in training critical and thinking readers. From an early age, it stimulates children's imagination and creativity, while promoting fundamental skills such as interpretation and analysis. By engaging with rich and varied stories, young readers develop the ability to question, reflect, and understand different perspectives. Additionally, children's literature often addresses complex topics in an accessible way, helping children understand and process social, cultural, and emotional issues. This contributes to the formation of a critical sense, encouraging them to think independently and develop empathy and understanding for others. Therefore, investing in reading from an early age is essential to form conscious individuals prepared to face the challenges of the world. Reading is, without a doubt, a revolutionary act.
