Children's literature From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Contents Basic Characteristics History Series Awards ... edit Basic Characteristics There is some debate as to what constitutes children's literature . Some would have it that children's literature is literature written specially for children, though many books that were originally intended for adults are now commonly thought of as works for children, for example Mark Twain 's The Prince and the Pauper , or Huckleberry Finn . The opposite has also been known to occur, where works of fiction originally written or marketed for children are given recognition as adult books. Witness that in recent years, the prestigious Whitbread Awards were twice given to books marketed as children's books: Philip Pullman 's The Amber Spyglass , and Mark Haddon 's The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time . The Nobel prize for literature has also been given to authors who made great contributions to children's literature, such as Selma Lagerl¶f and Isaac Bashevis Singer . Often it is hard to reach consensus on the question of whether a certain book is a children's book or not, for example, The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien
