Abstract
This paper explores the possibility of utilizing Children's and Young Adults'(C&YA) Literature in an EFL classroom essentially at a university level. It details why C&YA Literature should be made part of a learning experience of the EFL learners, how it can be implemented or incorporated into a curriculum, and what the learners will gain out of it. Criteria for choosing suitable C&YA books, as well as useful classroom activities and assessment, are also discussed in order to give teachers/researchers a clearer picture and better understanding of this literary genre if it is to be implemented in their schools or universities.
