With the emergence of the Khakass alphabet and national literature in the 20th century, Khakass writers turned to folklore genres. This article examines Khakass children’s literature based on the takhpakh singing genre canon. The study is devoted to the artistic and aesthetic originality of works by M. Kilchichakov, K. Nerbyshev, and T. Kazanaeva, created on the basis of the traditional takhpakh-style form. Attention is placed on parallelism as an artistic device illustrating the interrelation of nature and human. Studying takhpakh genre traditions in Khakass children's literature aims to reveal developmental trends within national literary heritage. The study aims to identify the features of the takhpakh genre in Khakass children’s literature, and to determine the genre specificity of the national artistic traditions and their existence throughout a lengthy historical period, from the oeuvre of one of the founders of Khakass literature, M.E. Kilchichakov, to the present day. The study combines historical poetics with structural and typological literary analysis. The practical significance of the study lies in the potential application of its findings in educational settings: schools, universities, and specialized courses or seminars on literary poetic genres, the development of Khakass children’s literature, and individual authors’ works. The study identifies the structural features of traditional takhpakh and the patterns of its transformation in children’s literature, and reveals the conceptual and artistic originality of this genre in the works by M.E. Kilchichakov, K.T. Nerbyshev, and T.F. Kazanaeva. Khakass poets' works depict the vibrant natural world, resonating with traditional educational values of their culture.
