FORMING AND EXAMINING THE READING EXPERIENCE OF A PRESCHOOL CHILD BY READING VERSIONS OF THE FAIRY TALE LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD

Abstract

The stimulus for the development of the project was the formation and examination of preschool aged child’s reading experience, using the example of the fairy tale “Little Red Riding Hood”. The backbone of the project is represented by four literary works. “Little Red Riding Hood”, by the Brothers Grimm, as a reference text, and three other texts that are in intertextual dialogue with it: “Wrong telling of the fairy tale” by Gianni Rodari, “Nibbles: The Book Monster” by Emma Yarlett, “ Wolf and the Other Little Red Riding Hood” by George Fisher. The aim of this research is to form and examine child’s reading experience and encouraging children to notice the places that are deconstructed, and thus see the way in which they understand it. Based on the results obtained, we will determine how children understand the intertextual dialogue between the fairy tale and the texts that rely on it.
