Abstract
The first Serbian children's book collections were published in the second half of the 19th century by Stevan V. Popovic in Pest. As a highschool and law student, Popovic stayed in Tekelijanum, in the Institute for Accommodation of Serbian Students. In 1872, he was the first in Serbian children's literature to prepare a collection Wreath of Poems and founded The Litlle World library. He published the following book collections: Images and Opportunities (Pest, 1872), Christmas Gift (Novi Sad, 1872), Radovan's Gift (1876), Christmas (1876), Day and Night (1877), Marigold Flowers (1877), Rest Days (1878), Children's Rejoicing (1878), Serbian Reciter (1879), Basil (1880), Little Gusle (1881), Little World (1882), Radovan (1883), Polaznik (1886), Badnjak (1891), Pearl Flowers (1905), Great Serbian Reciter. Stevan V. Popovic was appointed as manager of Tekelijanum in 1882. He dedicated his whole life to spreading Serbian education and educating the youth. The first Serbian children's book collections have not been included in the educational system of the Republic of Serbia so far, which interrupted the studing of Serbian literature for children.
