  4. Research Question What types of compromises must translators make to produce effective translations of English language children’s literature?

  5. Preliminary Conclusions • Some of the most effective translation is comprised of a series of approximations. • Children’s literature poses special challenges in translation because its process is not excluded to words, phrases and thoughts; rather, it includes sounds, rhymes and culturally specific traditions and/or products that may be alien to a target audience. • Translation is rich and requires not only a dictionary, but also an awareness of idioms, proverbs and trends that develop within the source culture.
