The reader in a process of autonomy

This book presents a study on the contributions that classic narratives bring to the construction of their possible infant-youth readers. The works chosen for the analysis were Alice in wonderland (1865), The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876), The Wizard of Oz (1900), and Nosebleed (1921) because they are classic stories that went beyond the chronological limits and present the child as the protagonist. From these stories, we seek to analyze the reader proposal configured by the texts. To carry out this analysis we started from a theoretical foundation that focuses on the structure of the narratives and the possible effects it generates on the reader. After the analysis, we discuss the effects of these interactions for the infant-youth reader, because every literary work foresees a possible reader, besides, it works as a mediator between the reader and the world, facilitating to the child the domain and the appropriation of several cultural and intellectual elements.
