Summary/Abstract: The current book production aimed at children and youth provides an expansive territory for non-fiction titles. Besides the extent of art methods, there is an extraordinarily immense topic spectrum approached from an original perspective presented by the titles. The study pays attention to the art topic, which is mediated by non-fiction books in a different intensity. The study focuses on various perspectives which make the art accessible for the youth, and on the creative approach based on the cooperation of words, images, graphics, and book type. Non-fiction books of art can be a good example of today's book media, which invites readers of different generations to share and encourages an inexperienced reader to enter the dialogue with the experienced one. The books encourage the interest in the creative process and inspiring activities of others by fostering a learning path and showing that the art is open to a reader for discovery and experience, even without his or her previous education.
