Nauczycielska twórczość literacka dla dzieci jako narzędzie (auto)kreacji w rozwoju zawodowym.

The preschool teacher’s own literary text for children of a preschool teacher based on her professional experience, published in book form, is a special tool – the impact on the child and the development of the teacher. The main goal of the article was to reach the determinants of the teacher’s motivation for literary activity for children. An individual case study using a literary text and an interview with its author was used. The research technique used is the content analysis of the interview with the author and the analysis of her literary text. The analysis draws on categories related to one of the perspectives of existence in biography – the sensitive narrator. In the text, the teacher perpetuated the needs of a real child. The genesis of the author’s book lies in the therapeutic impact of the teacher on the child and the impact of the text itself. The process of creating a literary text for children combined the teacher’s awareness of her own ability to influence who she is and became a tool for her own development. The preschool teacher’s own book for children is a tool of (self-)creation – a story about the child and herself. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
