        Every literary author uses literary and lingual techniques in the creation of her/ his work that leads to its beauty and rhetoric. Using literary and lingual techniques not only has a significant role in underlining the language of the work, but also, transforms it in to the authors' or poet's style which can be discovered through the analysis. Ahmad Reza Ahmadi, a modernist poet, in a collection of his works, has created allegories for children and adolescents with a double functions: on the one hand, they provoke the readers to read for pleasure; on the other hand, draw the readers' attention to the deep structure of the text. In this investigation which uses descriptive interpretive-content first of all, the techniques of allegorizing are considered in all those paper boats and then the created allegories in the mentioned book are interpreted. It is concluded that this book is replete with various allegories manifested in the words, sentences, and even the whole text that multiply the pleasure of reading. It also demonstrates that Ahmad Reza Ahmadi's allegories, the frequencies of which are orderly observed in the words, sentences and the whole text, are meaningfully related to the surface structure, also adding that, the minor symbols like the color, the time and the nature's constituents have greatly contributed to the creation of the major allegory.

        Many believe that translating Child and Adolescent's literary works is a very simple job and a good translation of Child and Adolescent's works is simply the replacement of words and the relative adherence to the sentence structures. But this is not true because translation is a very complex process and is influenced by many factors such as the type and manner of expression in the original text, the translator’s ability to convey the content and above all the tone. Therefore, in the present article, an attempt has been made to investigate the issue of tone in translating Child and Adolescent's literary works with a comparison of the translations of The Little Prince by Mohammad Ghazi and Ahmad Shamloo. The results show that there are weaknesses in selecting the appropriate tone for chidren and adolesencts by the tow translaors. Because Ghazi used very formal sentences that are suitable for adults and on the other hand, Shamloo used colloquial language and conversational sentences that are not suitable for children and adolescents.
