"Children's Literature"), formerly Detgiz and Detizdat, is a Soviet and Russian publishing house for children's literature.

It was established on September 9, 1933 by the Communist Party of the Soviet Union on the basis of Molodaya Gvardiya's children's imprint.

The company was initially called Detgiz (Russian: ДЕТГИЗ, Детское государственное издательство, romanized: Detskoe gosudarstvennoe izdatelstvo, lit.

In 1937 the headquarters of Detgiz was destroyed, some employees (such as Lydia Chukovskaya) were fired, others were arrested, imprisoned or executed by a firing squad.

In 1991 the publishing house was divided into the Moscow department, called Detskaya Literatura, and the Saint Petersburg department, called Lyceum or "Lyceum: The State Republican Publishing House for Children and Youth Literature" (Russian: Государственное республиканское издательство детской и юношеской литературы „Лицей“, romanized: Gosudarstvennoe respublikanskoe izdatelstvo detskoj i junosheskoj literatury „Litsej“), which later became DETGIZ.
