“Menina bonita do laço de fita’’ a representatividade da personagem negra na literatura infantil

Abstract

This study seeks to emphasize the importance of approaching Children's Literature books that have black characters as protagonists, as well as making reflections on the theme: Pretty girl with ribbon bow. It should, therefore, emphasize the representation of the black character in children's literature, as there are few literary works that bring the black character as the protagonist, as well as reporting its importance for black culture essentially in Early Childhood Education, as in everyday school life of 8 Early Childhood Education, the practice of Storytelling is present. Since we live in such a rich world, with different cultures, full of diversity, it would make no sense to find in literature only a tiny portion of the represented society. For this reason, it is increasingly important that we have black characters in literature, mainly in children's literature, as well as authors and authors, so that all children can identify and build broader and more realistic worldviews. This study uses as a research methodology a qualitative approach in which a bibliographic investigation was carried out with the authors: Jéssica Oliveira Farias (2018), Dulce Suely Castilho (2004), Eduardo Duarte (2014) Eliane Cavalleiro (2006) and Ruth Ceccon Barreiros ( 2010), these authors were selected because their works are of great importance in terms of the representation of the black character in children's literature, which are a reference in the area and research on the theme explained and which contribute to our professional and academic growth.
