This 1971 publication addresses key issues regarding the teaching of the Croatian language (or, at the time, Serbo-Croatian) and literature in elementary schools. The work is named after Toni Peruško (1905–1967)—a prominent Istrian educator, pedagogue, advocate for the rights of the people, and the first rector of the Higher Pedagogical School in Pula—whose enduring mission was the advancement of public education and the preservation of the mother tongue in Istria. Through scholarly papers and methodological articles, the book explores approaches to developing literacy, fostering linguistic expression, and teaching the reading and interpretation of literary texts to elementary school students. Particular emphasis is placed on the role of the teacher, the importance of encouraging children’s creativity, and the specific requirements of language education in bilingual and multicultural environments such as Istria. The work serves as a valuable historical and pedagogical document concerning the development of teaching practices and pedagogical thought in Croatia during the early 1970s.
