Annotation: Simone Bader's work wants to give a brief overview of childrens literature in general. Moreover, it tries to show the history of MAGIC, how it developed in (childrens) literature and how it is included in childrens books. Another aim is to find out about different reasons why magic in childrens books is so popular, to show possible ways of how MAGIC elements can be shown in books for a young audience and, most important, to explore those questions by a detailed analysis of the 3 specific childrens books: 'Peter Pan' (J.M.Barrie), 'The Witches' (Roald Dahl) and 'Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone' (J.K. Rowling)...as well as to define the role of MAGIC in them.
