Abstract

In this paper, we examine the ratio of two types of consciousness, a child’s one and an adult’s one, which belong to the same subject. The objective of this study is to investigate the child’s specifics of environment perception. The peculiarities of communicative relationship achievements between an adult storyteller and a reader, on the one hand, and between a child-reader and a hero, on the other hand, are traced. The main grammatical means of the narration organization are defined. It is also shown that child's consciousness is characterised by increased intensity of the cognitive processes, by a sense of beauty and an optimistic perception of the world.
