Despite the widespread association of children's literature with picture books, spoken
narratives existed before printing, and the root of many children's tales go back to ancient
storytellers.[9]:30 Seth Lerer, in the opening of Children's Literature: A Reader's History
from Aesop to Harry Potter, says, "This book presents a history of what children have
heard and read ... The history I write of is a history of reception."[10]:2
History
Early children's literature consisted of spoken stories, songs, and poems that were used to
educate, instruct, and entertain children.[11] It was only in the eighteenth century, with the
development of the concept of childhood, that a separate genre of children's literature began
to emerge, with its own divisions, expectations, and canon.[12]:x-xi The earliest of these
books were educational books, books on conduct, and simple ABCs—often decorated with
animals, plants, and anthropomorphic letters.[13]
