| Summary: | This study explores the impact of children's literature on FLE learning among
Algerian students aged 12-13 through a pedagogical sequence based on the album
"The Little Blue Camel". Drawing on motivational (Deci & Ryan) and socioconstructivist (Vygotsky) theories, the research demonstrates that this approach
significantly stimulates learner engagement, improves linguistic skills, and
transforms reading perceptions. Analysis of written/oral productions and interviews
reveals that children's literature, through its narrative and affective dimensions,
simultaneously promotes language acquisition and intercultural competency
development while creating a motivating learning environment. However, the study
identifies structural obstacles (lack of resources, insufficient teacher training) that
call for better-planned integration of these materials into curricula. These results
suggest that when systematically implemented, children's literature can become a
powerful lever to reconcile academic requirements with learning enjoyment in FLE
contexts, thus opening promising perspectives for renewing teaching practices in
emerging Francophone countries.
