Abstract	This paper focuses on one of the biggest challenges every translator sooner or later has to cope with, the challenge of translating phraseological units. The emphasis is on the lurking difficulties translators face and the strategic choices they usually opt for in the process of translating phraseological units, particularly in the process of translating phraseological units for children. For the purpose of providing a quality insight into the difficulties and the translation strategies, a bilingual analysis is performed, on the basis of English and German translations of phraseological units in Tales of Long Ago, a famous Croatian collection of fairy tales, by Ivana Brlić Mažuranić. The conclusion of this paper, based on the results of the performed analysis, gives an overview of the approaches and commonly used translation strategies by the translators of the English and German versions of Tales of Long Ago, of the differences and similarities in the techniques of translating phraseological units, and finally, taking into consideration the cultural knowledge that is required to translate this type of work, it reveals the level of success in producing an effective translation, having in mind that the phraseological units are culture-specific items and that the audience is primarily children.
