The study tries to explore the various medial connections in children’s poetry through Kovács András Ferenc’s poetry volume, Árdeli szép tánc (Beautiful Dance from Ardel). Bundled with the volume was a CD with readings and musicalized poems that call the attention to the acoustic aspects of children’s poetry and thus to the importance of reading out loud or reading together. The second part of the study – by differentiating three basic types of illustrations – examines the possible connections between poem illustrations and the text of the poem.
