ABSTRACT

This article aims to introduce Chinese four main children literature awards andamong them to investigate the characteristics of the National Excellent Children’sLiterature Award(NECLA) which is the most prestigious award in the field of pureliterature. I examined the main ideology, judgement standard sets and winningprocedures of the NECLA and the problems it is faced with and also its solutions. Having the highest authority, the NECLA has influenced the characteristics of ChineseChildren’s literature in the past three decades. This triennial award keeps Chinesechildren literature diverse by holding onto the genres peculiar to Chinese childrenliterature, such as reportage, prose, fable and science fantasy, etc. Each time it tries to supplement and amend the judgement standard set and to increase not only the numberof judges but also the percentage of the judges from ethnic minorities, however, theenhancement of transparency and fairness should be more considered. The NECLAstrives to filter out themes which is not socialistic for Chinese children living in 2000sand seeks the strong and sincere children’s image untinged with commercialism.
