In this article, the works of Peter Härtling, a competent representative of the 21st-century German literature, named "Djadi, Flüchtlingsjunge" (2016) and Alan Gratz, a well-known writer of American literature, named "Refugee" (2017), one in German and the other in English, will be compared in the refugee problem axis, especially in terms of reflection to the child psychology of living as a refugee. Basically in our study, by moving from the belly bond between literature and reality, we aimed at attracting attention to the problem of refugees, which is the bloody wound of the real world waiting for an urgent solution, with the inner screams of the refugee children rising from the world. 21 in which we live. In the century, all countries of the world are facing and facing the most extensive refugee movement since World War II. In recent years, the number of refugees and refugee adults and children has grown considerably due to regional wars that have occurred in various parts of the earth. The difficulties generally encountered by the refugee groups and detailed in the article cause serious psychological effects to the children of refugees who are not yet pregnant. The creative world of literature, feeding the resources it has received from the real world, has not remained sensitive to the problem of refuge, which is the most prominent problem of the age in which the body is found, and has begun to deal with this problem from different points of view. In fact, in these works we carefully chosen to compare from millennium literature, the problem of refuge has been addressed, especially in terms of reflection to child psychology. Therefore, the study will be questioned about the similarities of the fictional refugee children in the works with the actors in the real world. In the fictional world of the works, we will explore how much of these and similar problems the refugee children have to face in real life, from what perspective and with what attitude they approach and place these problems. The method of comparison will be used first of all. These works, which have been written in recent periods, i.e. produced in a time where historically and socially similar events occur, will be compared with the method of "tipolological comparison" and will also be used by the methods of historical-social, psychoanalytic, positivist criticism and literary sociology.

In this article the works, which are written one in German and the other in English, of Peter Härtling's “Djadi, Flüchtlingsjunge” (2016), a competent representative of German literature of the 21st century and Alan Gratz's “Refugee” (2017), a well-known author of the American literary world, will be analyzed comparatively in terms of the refugee problem, particularly in terms of the effects of living as a refugee on child psychology. In this study, we have fundamentally aimed to draw attention to the refugee problem, which is a bleeding wound of the real world waiting for an immediate solution and the inner cries of refugee children rising from the fictional world, with reference to the umbilical cord between literature and reality. It’s seen that in the 21st century all the countries of the world confront the largest scale refugee movement since the Second World War. The number of refugee and asylum-seeker adults and children has increased dramatically in recent years due to regional wars in various parts of the world. Difficulties generally encountered by refugee groups and identified in detail in this article cause serious psychological influences for underage refugee children. The fictional world of literature, which is nourished by the resources it derives from the real world, is not insensitive to the problem of refugee, the most prominent problem of its era and has begun to deal with this problem from different perspectives. As a matter of fact, in these works, which we carefully selected to compare from the millennium literature, the problem of refugee is discussed especially in terms of their reflections on child psychology. Therefore, in this study, the similarities of fictional refugee children in these works will be questioned with real world actors. In the fictional world of the works, it will be found out how much and to what extend that these refugee children have to face the similar problems in the real life and how they are treated and referred in these works which were carefully chosen. First of all, comparison method will be used in our study. We will compare these works, which were written nearly in the same historical and social period by using typological comparison method and also benefit from historical-social, psychoanalytic, history-positivist criticism and literary sociology methods.
