Animals are an important part of children's upbringing and childhood. They are often necessary in children's literature. Animals are verbal, visual and textual constructs, and with them the child can more easily solve the problems of his everyday life. Anthropomorphism in children's literature is often visible when the author gives animals human characteristics and includes animals in human relationships and problems. That's how Vladimir Nazor depicted personified and humanized inhabitants of the forest who preserve within their character some of the basic animal properties in the fairy tale The White Deer. The basic wonder is the contact between the world of plants and animals and the world of people. Intertwining the fantastic and the real, Nazor shows two worlds. Various characters appear: bears, wolves, deer, cats, geese, eagles, snakes and others. The bearers of the fable are animal characters who are shown as equal to humans.
