Abstract:

Literary products that give children the love and habit of reading are not limited to school books of course. Outside of school, it is extremely important for children to be introduced with literary products that suit their interests and age, positively influence their feelings and thoughts, to gain love for reading and habit. Children's literature works should be according to the child in terms of content and design characteristics. In this context, presenting the product of children's literature requires the child's understanding of reality when it comes to content and design characteristics. The purpose of this study is to study the Children's Books of the Chicken Tiger in terms of the principle of relativity to the child. For this purpose, 6 children's books of the Chicken Tiger were studied in terms of conformity to the principle of relativity to the child. In the study, taking into account the development characteristics of the child and the principle of "parallelity to the child", the content characteristics that the books of the Tiger must carry to the child in terms of parallels: subject, theme (parallels), character(s), language and narrative, communication and environment" and the design characteristics that the books of the Tiger must carry to the child in terms of parallels: Paper, page layout and paintings. These titles are determined by scanning the area and focusing on how the principle of relativity should be addressed to the child. This assessment was used by the work of Çakır (2013) entitled "Review of stories in Turkish lesson books in terms of the principle of image to the child".
