SUMMARY:

This work has as general objective to investigate what can the children's literature that presents
the Afro-Brazilian and African culture and history regarding the black subjects that are
represented in it. For this, search the catalogs of two bookstores and eleven publishers and seven
municipal schools, located in the urban area of São João del-Rei, which serves students from
1st to 5th of elementary school, for books of children's literature with Afro-Brazilian and
African culture and history and black characters. As a theoretical foundation, it took into
account the contributions of Gomes (2012; 2017) to ethnic-racial relations; Lajolo and
Zilberman (1985; 2017) for Children's Literature; and Freire's(2011) ideas about world reading.
The questions that move this research are: Are children's literature books, which address the
ethnic-racial theme and Afro-Brazilian and African history and culture, present in schools from
1st to 5th grade of elementary school? Are your contents powerful for children to make a critical
reading of the world? Has the publishing market made available works for children that meet
the requirements of law 10.639/03? In the seven schools surveyed, 164 works with black
characters and/or that present the culture and history and Afro-Brazilian and African, out of a
total of 12,789. In the publishing market, of the total of 2,886 books, 223 books brought black
characters and/or culture and history and Afro-Brazilian and African. Six works found in all
seven schools surveyed were analyzed. The results of the research indicate that, even with the
advances driven by law 10.639/03, the amount of works present in schools, presenting black
characters as protagonists and with Afro-Brazilian and African culture and history, is small
when compared to other books available. On the other hand, qualitatively, the works found
value black bodies and address Afro-Brazilian and African culture and history. The results
reinforce the importance of public policies for the distribution of works of children's literature
committed to the diversity of black bodies and to Afro-Brazilian and African culture and
history.
