Abstract

The founding of the Premio Hispanoamericano de Poesía para Niños in 2004, the publication of Digo de noche un gato by Maria Baranda (2006), and Hago de voz un cuerpo (2007, anthology directed by Baranda) mark the beginning of great literary quality poetry for children. Nowadays, there is a trend of books of poems for children that have a narrative thread and whose poetic voices and/or protagonists are girls. These girls use “words” to empower themselves. “Words” that seek to create a new reality, incantations, or known phrases to which one or few words are changed and their meaning is completely transformed. This message of brave protagonists, of course, reaches the girl readers.
