Summary/Abstract: In this study, we will analyze how fantasy literature for children is methodologically exploited in the textbooks approved by the Ministry of Education for the fourth grade. We have chosen the fourth grade as a case study because the growing interest of children in the latter part of primary school in magical worlds and fantastical creatures is psychologically motivated. Thefourth grade is particularly the temporal interval in which students finalize their linguistic acquisitions, so the complexity of fantasy literature is no longer an impediment in the processof comprehending the particularities of a narrative text. We will also analyze the preferencesof manual and auxiliary authors regarding the selection of texts from contemporary and traditional canonical literature. The analysis will focus on the didactic approaches to thesetexts.
