        The paper explores the picture book written by Croatian author Bruno Mezić and illustrated by Klasja Habjan, published by Mala zvona (2021). Croatian children's literature about music (Ž. H. Vukelja, Lj. Šimara etc.) starts from different topics; the importance of hard training, overcoming fear before a performance or the characteristics of a musical instrument. This picture book raises some provocative questions about the relationship between practising and enjoying music, and provokes the reader's engagement. First, the picture book has a different and unusual theme: the freedom of creating (composing) music, which is not only possible for adults, but also for a very small girl. This idea corresponds in the picture book with the girl's sensitivity to sounds from nature and the environment. Second, this is a hypersensitive and extremely gifted child, so the picture book can also be viewed from the aspect of encouraging and affirming creativity. The picture book also functions as a small vocabulary in the field of classical music, in a humorous and appropriate way. Third, the illustrator's contrasting illustrations (scenes of formal teaching in a music school and improvisations which Piccola practices alone) are a visual challenge addressed to the reader, while the text has the role of describing different ways of understanding and performing music. The focus of the text is the method of the author's artistic presentation of the previously mentioned perspectives. The authors of the paper were also inspired by the books The Gifted Learner. How to Help (Fidelma Healy Eames 2022) and With Story to Music -- Story as a Starting Point in the Musical Upbringing and Education of Younger and Preschool Children (Željka Horvat Vukelja & Petra Heisinger 2020), as well as functional pedagogy by Elly Bašić and recent research on the discovery of gifted children by Blaženka Bačlija Sušić and her colleagues.
        Rad istražuje slikovnicu hrvatskih autora Bruna Mezića (tekst) i Klasje Habjan (ilustracije) u izdanju zagrebačkog nakladnika Mala zvona (2021). Hrvatska književnost za djecu o glazbi (primjerice slikovnice Željke Horvat Vukelja) polazi od različite tematike. Nerijetko su u središtu pažnje imperativ napornoga vježbanja, svladavanje straha prije nastupa ili karakteristike glazbala. Međutim, ova slikovnica ima neuobičajenu temu, a ta je sloboda stvaranja (komponiranja) glazbe koja nije rezervirana samo za odrasle, već u njoj uspješno uživa posve malena djevojčica. Slikovnica je djelo koje postavlja neka provokativna pitanja o odnosu između vježbanja i uživanja u glazbi i izaziva angažman čitatelja. 1. Ova ideja korespondira u slikovnici sa senzibilnošću djevojčice prema zvukovima iz prirode i tehničke okoline. Sinergija zvukova je predstavljena u slikovnici na različitim razinama, kao i zazivi koje djevojčica osjeća. 2. Ilustracije produbljuju značenje teksta inovativnom uporabom boje i eksperimentiranjem oblicima. Autorice skreću pažnju na razine invokacije čitatelja i konstraste izražene ilustracijama : u prvome je riječ o invokacijama samoće, prirode i same glazbe; u drugome o kontrastiranju linija i oblika vanjskog svijeta i svijeta u zatvorenim prostorima, uporabi boje koja postaje komentar povezivanja djeteta s prirodom i igri značenja i boje. Slikovnica se stoga na više razina može promatrati s aspekta poticanja i afirmacije kreativnosti, a funkcionira i kao početni pojmovnik iz područja klasične glazbe, na šaljiv i primjeren način. 3. Kontrastni postupci ilustratorice (primjerice prizori formalnoga učenja sviranja u glazbenoj školi i improviziranje koje Piccola uvježbava sama) vizualni su izazov upućen recipijentu, dok tekst ima funkciju podrške različitim načinima shvaćanja i izvođenja glazbe. Autorice su posebno nadahnute dvjema knjigama: studijom The Gifted Learner. How to help Fidelme Healy Eames; priručnikom Željke Horvat Vukelja i Petre Heisinger Pričom do glazbe -- priča kao polazište u glazbenom odgoju i obrazovanju djece mlađe i predškolske dobi, kao i funkcionalnom glazbenom pedagogijom Elly Bašić i radovima Blaženke Bačlije Sušić i njenih kolega o otkrivanju i poticanju glazbene nadarenosti u djece.
