Summary/Abstract: Poland has a long history, but unfortunately, this history is also full of battles for inde-pendence, to keep the Polish language and culture, and a struggle for Christian values. What was supporting these processes? According to many experts Polish literature has been one important factor. In this article, the role of Polish literature for children, espe-cially poetry, in supporting their creativity and Polishness will be analysed. Subsequently the article will outline the history of Polish literature for children, the importance of pa-triotic and religious literature, especially during the Partition and Soviet time and the nature of children’s literature.
