This study analyzes the uses of children's literature (LI) during the literacy processes of peasant children, highlighting the contributions of literary education to the formation of readers. A qualitative field research was developed, in which semi-structured interviews were used as data production devices. The interlocutors were five literacy teachers, who work in two rural schools of the municipal education network of Novo Santo Antônio (PI), a city located 116 km from Teresina, capital of the state of Piauí. The results indicate that the teachers use LI, a priori, as a methodological strategy for the teaching of reading and writing, privileging the pedagogical function to the detriment of what is proposed by literary education, namely: the unique properties of artistic creation. It is concluded that it is necessary to develop continuing education actions so that teachers conceive literacy as a process of understanding the alphabetic writing system, and literacy as the use of this system in social practices that involve reading and writing, ensuring that IL is worked from the perspective of literary education.
