Summary/Abstract: The article describes an example of an excerpt from a program / proposal for project activities by Shawntelle Nesbitt around books from the Canadian ‘Holocaust Remembrance Series for Young Readers’. In the context of the proposed core curriculum for the Polish language, formulated by Krzysztof Biedrzycki, the values of the didactic package for Canadian schools were discussed. In Canada literary education is closely related to civic education, as well as other educational goals (Character Education). Foreign solutions were indicated as a valuable example for the creators of the new core curriculum for the Polish school.
