Abstract:

Children's literary works play an important role in the process of acquiring the child's reading culture. When taken into account the function and limits of child literature, the design, content and educational characteristics of child literature works should be in accordance with the child's reality and written standards, reflecting the artist's sensitivity. In this study, Michael Ende’s work “Momo” was studied in the light of the fundamental principles of children’s literature. The research was carried out by the method of document examination from the quality research methods. In the study, first of all, the scan of the area created a conceptual framework for the visuality of the child. The work that was later studied, according to the form (size, paper, cover and skin, page layout, letters, images), content (theme, trace, message, plan, character, language and narrative) and educational characteristics, the child was studied from a relativity point of view. There are several recommendations according to the findings.
