Modern methodic of literature teaching has defined a literary work as the central, starting content of the teaching process. Different types of literary works from national and foreign literature are being stipulated as representative works for Reading classes in primary and secondary school, which form the basis of world culture, works of anthological value appropriate to child's experiencecognitive capabilities (Rosandić, 2005: 50). Lučić-Mumlek (2002: 26) specifies that literature teaching in lower primary school has to encourage pupil's interest for reading and reading culture of literary texts development by using different kinds of teaching and extracurricular processes. Nastavni plan i program za osnovne škole (1999, 2001) suggests an indicative list of literar titles for Reading classes for lower grades in primary schools. According to the above mentioned criteria, the novel Vlak u snijegu by Mate Lovrak, had been found on the list of Reading works for third grades in primary schools, and in addition to the mentioned book, Nastavni plan i program za osnovnu školu suggest watching the film of the same name by the director Mate Relja. The film, as well as the literature ecranization, cannot be ignored in medial culture and Croatian language classes. Considering the fact that literar works are being ecranized, it can be concluded that there is an existing bond and familiarity between these arts (Uvanović, 2008: 21). The aim of this final thesis is to question the connection between the novel Vlak u snijegu and the film adaptation of the same novel as well as the impact and usage of the adaptation in teaching.
