Summary/Abstract: The article examines the first Bulgarian editions of two favorite books of young and old – „Winnie the Pooh“ and „Pippi Longstocking“ – and focuses on the inseparable relation between text and image. Alan Milne and Astrid Lindgren worked closely with the artists who illustrated their works, and as a result, the painted images attracted children’s attention no less than the written stories. The main question for the publication will be how these world-famous images were perceived by Bulgarian children in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s when almost all books in the country were illustrated by artists who worked according to the standards of socialist ideology.
