About Anything, and possibly Everything..

So one might ask, what’s the differences between kid’s fantasy books and young adult fantasy books? The first most obvious difference is language. Young adult books may contain strong language that is not suitable to minors ears. Although, the language would not be too extreme, but still is not acceptable for young kids to read or hear. Another dimension of young adult books is sexual situations.

This aspect of ya books is totally off limits for the young. These types of scenes can get pretty graphic even for some adults. Violence in young adult books is also very graphic. Fighting and battles tend to go into gory details explaining everything right down to the last drop of blood. Juvenile fantasy books on the other hand tend to be lighter and not as graphic.

These books usually centers themselves around friendship and adventure. The young characters band together to find some special object or to battle a great evil that is threatening the world. The children often go on a fantastic quest meeting all sorts of interesting creatures on the way. Most of these creatures normally have magic powers or some kind of unique ability. Juvenile fantasy books concentrate mostly on the journey of the characters, not necessarily on love interest.

However, from time to time there is a little of that mix into the story. Most juveniles do not want their children’s fantasy books bogged down with the mushy stuff. This is normally a turn off for the children. They do not want anything getting in the way of a great adventure story. There are some young adult books that lean towards the juvenile reader.

Some say the Harry Potter series falls into this category. While others say, Harry Potter is pure juvenile fantasy that has crossed over to young adult because of the great story. Although the Harry Potter books were initially listed as juvenile fantasy books. Nowadays, you can find it listed in both juvenile fantasy and young adult fantasy. Not many books have this ability to jump to a whole new genre and be just as successful in both.

Juvenile fantasy books appeals to the young and old. The young can identify with the characters and envision themselves as the heroic hero. The one that has come to save the day and be cheered for by the loyal subjects. The adult love the stories because they can think back to the time when they were young and all the exciting stories that they once read when they were kids. The difference between juvenile fantasy books and young adult fantasy books can be major or minor.

It actually depends on the book. Parents and readers will be wise to check out the young adult fantasy book before they purchase it to find out just how adult the young adult book really is. As far as juvenile fantasy novels goes, what you see is what you get. Although, they do not commonly have bad language or extreme violence, one may want to check it out any way.
