The purpose of this paper is to share some experiences teaching literature studies with children of third, fourth and fifth grades in a private school in Bogotá to demonstrate that English can be taught through the exploration of literature. The opportunity to offer learners a chance for literacy through reading stories is rewarding when you witness the joy children feel when opening a colorful book full of surprises and beautiful illustrations.
