Children’s literature is a wide and complex genre that consists of various other genres that are specific in their own way. The theoretical part of this paper explains children’s literature and the importance of literature in childhood. Furthermore, it names the most important characteristics of traditional literature, fiction, biography and autobiography, informational books, early childhood books, and poetry and verse, as genres of children’s literature, and lists strategies and techniques used to translate those genres. The paper analyses five different works: The Box of Robbers by L. Frank Baum (traditional literature), Eliza Boom: My Explosive Diary by Emily Gale (fiction), Little People, BIG DREAMS: Maria Montessori by Maria Isabel Sánchez Vegara (biography and autobiography), Lift-the-flap General Knowledge by Alex Firth and James Maclaine (informational books), and Fox’s Socks by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler (poetry and verse and early childhood books). Each analysis consists of strategies and techniques translators used with examples written after each strategy or technique. However, strategies and techniques for translating children’s literature widely depend on the topic of the book and the differences between source and target cultures and languages. Thus, the aim of this paper is to analyse different works and show which translation strategies and techniques are most frequently used for translating different genres.
