Children's fantasy: a selection of books

Children's fantasy is a separate world in literature, gaining momentum recently. And the line separating the works of this genre from the more adult fiction is often very insignificant. Books written in the genre of Yang-Edal, like to read not only to children and adolescents, they are also interesting for older readers. Such a fantasy allows you to believe in a miracle and again see the diversity of the world, where good must necessarily defeat evil.
