To this end, a qualitative study has been conducted by means of the implementation of a didactic experience at the Faculty of Education in Toledo with the students of the Degree in Infant Education at University of CastillaLa Mancha. Through this didactic experience, students were assumed to gain knowledge of the main contributions to Children’s Literature in the context of the elective course Children’s Literature in English and its Didactics. Firstly, some advantages of the inclusion of Children’s Literature and its possibilities at early educational levels are revised through some of the most relevant authors on the field. Secondly, this paper pays attention to the necessity of including Children’s Literature in Infant Education Studies, giving its importance in early educational levels. Thirdly, this article shows the context of the study, particularly, the approach followed in the course as well as its main objectives, contents, learning outcomes and assessment criteria implemented. Once the main aspects of the study have been described, including its design, methodology and participants, this paper focuses on the analysis of the results obtained in the qualitative study conducted.
