Natural-scientific prose is characterized by a specific description of the natural world in which scientific information is fitted in the experience of nature and animal characters only partially or minimally anthropomorphized. The goal of this research is firstly to explore the presence and influence of foreign literary authors in the history of Croatian (childrenʼs) literature, who dedicated their literary work to this unique literary subgenre, such as a Danish journalist and writer Carl Ewald and an American-Canadian zoologist and literary author Ernest Thompson Seton. Furthermore, the aim of the paper was also to study the contribution of Croatian authors – Miroslav Hirtz, Zlatko Špoljar, Antica Juras-Ljubić and Vlatko Šarić – in this narrative form by methodologically relying on the insights of literary science and animal studies.

Being a private form of communication, personal letters are usually not written to be published. The act of their publication, therefore, may be considered as somewhat voyeuristic. However, since the authors of the correspondence in this contribution – Julije Benešić and Zdenka Marković – are two public figures of great importance not only in Croatian literary and cultural context, but also in the promotion of Croatian Polish studies as well as intercultural relations between Croatia and Poland in the first half of the twentieth century, we believe that its printing is justified. Their correspondence may be considered as an interesting addition to the facts about their lives and work that can be found in different research papers and books published so far, providing insight in the inner world of thoughts and emotions they shared.

The introductory part of the article aims to briefly present the main ideas of ecocriticism, a relatively new theoretical approach to the study of literary texts, and also provide basic information about a special publishing project launched at the beginning of the 1990s byMladost publishing house-Eko Vjeverica ( Eco Squirrel ), a book series intended for children. After that, the focus of the analysis is shifted to one of the titles from the series, Zarobljenik šumske kuće ( Prisoner of the Forest House ), a collection of stories written by a Croatian author Anđelka Martić. The main research issues in this article, which are at the same time the basic guidelines of ecocritical approach in the analysis of literary works, relate to the study of fundamental ecological values implied by the word “nature”-what nature is in a given context, in which way nature is experienced and perceived by human characters and how that perception has changed over the years, and also how the world around us acquires meaning through textual representations of nature.
