Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the popular science style in magazines addressed to younger school-children. The analysed texts have been published in the "Kumpel" magazine and are devoted to the subject of nature. Their distinguishing feature is the pursuit of intersemiotic and non-linear method of encoding information. The spatial configuration of information allows to perceive the meanings conveyed by means of verbal, illustrational, and typographical code in any order. In the article, I am looking for answers to the following questions: what means are used by the writers of popular science texts targeted at children, how to analyse the perceived measures, and the identified method of constructing popular science texts affects the modification of learning literacy by the model recipient.
