The purpose of the study was to provide an insight into how a selection of preschool teachers believes that child literature can be used as a tool in the educational activity, to support older children in linguistic expression of their emotions and consideration for others. And how the preschool teachers reason about the revised assignment in the preschool curriculm Lpfö18, which deals whit empathy and care in realtion to the work with children´s literature. The method used in the study is qualitative interviews, in which six preschool teachers participated. The study´s results show that children´s literature is a valuable educational tool in the work towards the revised assignment, as many books highlight empathy, care and emotions. The children´s literature was used continuously through reading and conversations to give the children the opportunity to acquire words to be able to express themselves linguistically. The results show that the preschool teachers in this study are aware of how they can work whit children´s literature in relation to the revised assignment in order to support the children to express themselves linguistically. Finally, it emerges that the preschool teachers in this study are perceived to be aware of how they should work to provide the conditions for children to express their feelings linguistically.
