Abstract
The study looks at the representation of adult characters in Zimbabwean Children’s literature. It
mainly focused on the depiction of women from various geographical settings. Issues affecting
the representation of women were therefore brought to light from a feminist literary perspective.
Children’s literary works which include Hanson’s Takadini, Sigogo’s Visit to the Gods and
Hozo’s Tapiwa and the Kidnappers were used as the basis of the research.
