RESUMEN: El artículo examina de modo crítico algunas de las ideas relacionadas con la literatura infantil, sobre todo la que considera que una de las principales funciones de los libros para niños es transmitir valores. Se examinan asimismo las relaciones entre literatura y ética a fin de mostrar el potencial de la literatura, también de la literatura infantil, para hablar profundamente sobre la vida y los seres humanos. Contra la consideración de los libros para niños como instrumentos para entretener o aleccionar se argumenta la importancia de la lectura ética y la capacidad de esos libros para suscitar razonamientos morales. Se discuten también ciertas prácticas pedagógicas que subestiman la calidad de la literatura infantil y sus posibilidades para promover respuestas éticas y la construcción de conocimiento a través del diálogo y la escucha.
ABSTRACT: This paper examines critically some of the ideas related to children's literature, in particular the one that considers that one of the main functions of the children's books is to transmit values. The relationship between literature and ethics are also discussed in order to show the potential of literature, including the children's literature, to talk about life and human beings in great depth. Against consideration of the children's books as instruments to entertain or instruct, this paper argues the importance of an ethical reading and the possibility of those books to generate moral reasoning. Certain pedagogical practices that underestimate the quality of children's literature and its power to promote ethical responses and the construction of knowledge through dialogue and listening are also discussed.
