Summary/Abstract: The article is about forming literary-critical reception of modern literature for children and youth in Vojvodina (Serbia) after 1945. The analysis of contemporary day-to-day reviews and opinions on books for children contributes to more profound and more detailed summary of the beginnings and the first important impulses in critical reflexion. The authors of the first reviews and opinions were the authors, editors, or pedagogues themselves, for example: A. Čipkár,P. Mučaji, M. Babinka, J. Tušiak and others. Later, some other experts from different areas tried to do this: J. Kmeť – a literary critic and literary historian, M. Myjavcova – a linguist, and, fromyounger generation, M. Demák – a journalist and writer for children. In the 1990’s, some other experts dealt with this issue: Z. Spevák – a pedagogue and writer for children, and, especially, J. Hodoličová – an university professor. Apart from the reviews of books for children and youth, the author in her article also deals with more recent memoirs on this issue by some critics from Vojvodina, and the meetings where the main focus was the creation of literature for children and youth.
