The article analyzes relations between the text and the image as two different semiotic modes in the framework of multimodal studies. Key theoretical approaches to this issue are outlined. Visual and verbal narratives are examined at three levels: ideational, interpersonal and textual. The ideational meaning system comprises actions, characters and circumstances. The interpersonal system covers a wide range of issues connected with interaction between the reader and the characters. The textual meaning is realized by giving prominence to certain objects in the image or the text. Logico-semantic relations of elaboration, enhancement and extension are revealed. Elaboration is characterized by clarification and exemplification, the image may be more general than the text, and vice versa. Enhancement relations include various circumstances (temporal, spatial, causal), besides, both the text and the image may enhance each other. Extension adds new, semantically unrelated information and offers alternative ways of story unfolding. The research is based on contemporary picture books (J. Scieszka, L. Anholt, F. French, R. Munsch) and illustrated fairy tales (E. Delessert, B. Ensor) and directed at revealing various types of text-image relations.

The underlying issue of the reflection focused on in this presentation is how the generic transformations of fairy tales affect children’s receptive experience. This question encouraged the research which was conducted among primary school pupils and which aimed at learning about their cultural competence. The didactic experiment was carried out in reference to Hanna Krall’s fairy tale titled What Happened to Our Fairy Tale? [Co się stało z naszą bajką?]. This work abounds in toying with the genre convention, as well as in intertextual references to traditional fairy tales, and in metamathematical references. These properties of the text enabled us to find out to what extent the young audience is familiar with traditional fairy tales, and with popular motifs and generic features. On the other hand, the open, ambiguous ending furthered the recognition of independent reception and interpretative abilities. The achieved results were used not only to determine the cultural experience of the pupils, but also their aesthetic expectations, as well as the ethical and existential attitudes. The issue which comes into prominence in the background concerns the manner and the degree to which the contemporary fairy tale performs the world-modeling function.
