Category:Children's Literature

Children's fiction (and, more rarely, nonfiction) is a publishing term for books aimed at readers under about 14. It is often divided into categories / formats for different ages: picture books for the preliterate, early reader books for children starting to read, and chapter books for those with independent reading skills. The vocabulary and content will typically be restricted to match the intended readership.

Also see Young Adult Literature, for the next age-group up.
