The paper focuses on and discusses some chosen strategies of creating historical heroes in the series of books for young readers: “It has happened in Poland” (published by Literatura). The analysis of the solutions, linguistic and stylistic means used by the authors will allow to reconstruct the methods of creating and evaluating a literary form with a historical origin implied in the text. The subject of the arrangements will also be references to contexts that may shape the functioning of this type of books and their heroes in the reading circulation.
