This paper is a part of a 2023 master’s dissertation aiming to understand children’s constructed meanings about the ways to be a boy or a girl among personages in children’s literature under counter-hegemonic perspective for gender. The methodology used ethnographic research with children and social constructionism. For the theoretical basis we have drawn to authors like Candido (2011); Corsaro (2005); Fernandes (2016); Machado (2018, 2021, 2023); Vianna and Finco (2009). Through this study we have found that gender identities are still present in our society as a way of differing and governing boys’ and girls’ bodies early childhood education schools.
