The African children's literature that has been entering the Brazilian publishing market has fostered a field of analysis on its characteristics and trends. It is interested in this analytical movement that the present article aimed to analyze the fruitive character of the works “Sulwe”, by Lupita Nyong'o (2019), and “Ombela: the origin of the rains”, by Ondjaki (2014). The concept of literary enjoyment is related to the dynamics between the literary text, its audience and the mediation process (OBERG, 2014). In this perspective, in the analysis carried out it was possible to identify and highlight elements of enjoyment, on the verbal plane, in two narratives that address themes of valorization of African identity and culture. This also contributed to highlight the importance of such works for the literary formation of the Brazilian public, especially for children, since they present more positive perspectives than in previous moments of children's literature available in Brazil.

Palabras clave : African children's literature; Literary enjoyment; Sulwe; Ombela.
