Children's book titles

The title of the children's book plays a special role: it is this first that attracts the attention of the little reader and his parents. A bright, simple and memorable title helps the book stand out from many others and already on the cover convey its mood.

Features of children's book titles:

• Simplicity and clarity. The name should be clear to the child, not contain complex words.
• Game element. Rhymes, alliteration and funny combinations ("Moidodyr," "Aibolit") are often found.
• Hero images. The title often mentions the main character: "Carlson, who lives on the roof," "Dunno in the Sunny City."
• Emotions and adventures. The headlines promise a fun story, mystery or magical journey.
• Brevity. The shorter the title, the easier it is to remember.

Examples of known names are:

• Classics: "The Golden Key, or The Adventures of Pinocchio," "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer."
• Modern episodes: "Diary of a Weakling," "The Little Prince," "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone."
• Books for kids: "Kolobok," "Teremok," "Turnip."

Why the name is so important:

• It creates the first impression of the book.
• Helps the child become interested in reading.
• Makes the book easily recognizable and popular.
• Often becomes a brand (for example, "Harry Potter" or "Dunno").

So the titles of children's books are not only words on the cover, but also a tool for communicating with the little reader, who opens the door to a world of fantasy, humor and cognition.
