Sažetak
This paper, from a dual perspective, that of the history of legal deposit copies and the history of the definition of children’s literature, tries to answer the question why almost all Croatian picturebooks published during the first two decades of production of the genre (1863 - 1885) are now lost. Instead as being seen as a problem, the lost picturebooks are approached as a stimulus for research on the relationship between games, children’s literature and material culture, in this case, books and toys, which is, as it was proposed by Robin Bernstein (2013) with a slightly different emphasis, the path to understanding literature as a complex and dynamic historical and cultural phenomenon, but also the opening for the research of children’s literature into the insights, approaches and perspectives from other disciplines.
