Książka w życiu dziecka w wieku wczesnoszkolnym
A book in the life of a child in early age

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to try to answer the question: what place in the life of pupils of grades I–III primary school occupies a book? The theoretical part contains general comments on the stages of children’s reading education. In the practical part, the diagnostic survey method was used, based on the survey technique and questionnaire survey as a research tool. This method allowed us to obtain information on the attitude of young respondents to the book. The study was conducted among primary school pupils located in the town and commune of Czerwionka-Leszczyny. The results, presented in tabular form and labeled with a verbal comment, argue that, contrary to popular belief, children like to read, reaching for a book not only from instrumental but primarily autotelic motifs. Our article may be useful for early school educators, librarians working in schools to know what books are at the heart of the young readers, and for all readers interested in reading.
