BONIN, Iara Tatiana  y  SILVEIRA, Rosa Maria Hessel. O humor na literatura infantil: um estudo sobre leitura e apropriação de recursos humorísticos por crianças dos anos iniciais. Perspectiva [online]. 2012, vol.30, n.03, pp.869-890. ISSN 0102-5473.

This paper is based on the articulation between the field of children’s literature and studies of humor. It investigates how elementary school students use humor in their production of text and image, after an activity with a work of children’s literature that uses humor - David Small’s Imogene’s Antlers, (‘Os chifres de Filomena’ in Brazil). The study addresses humor in children’s literature, characterizes the book chosen, describes the work conducted and interprets the students’ production to identify how they recreate humoristic strategies. We speculate that both the challenging character of the proposed activities and the characteristics of the work, which has an open ending, may have stimulated the wide variety of scenarios, plots and denouements found in the children’s productions.

Palabras clave : Difference; Children’s Literature; Humor.
