The article presents an analysis of the content of the book "The World in the Mirror. Good can be greater” by Zofia Kulińczak, Aleksandra Kulińczak, Katarzyna Kulińczak and Cezary Smuniewski, with illustrations by Anna Kaszuba-Dębska. The text examines the educational and ethical values of the book, focusing on its narrative structure and artistic illustrations. The article emphasizes the importance of open narrative and reverse role pedagogy (parentification), pointing out that goodness may come from unexpected sources, regardless of social position. Illustrations play an important role, enhancing the emotional message of the text. Theological reflections and a multi-faceted approach to morality enrich the message of the book, which is a valuable educational tool that develops empathy, imagination and understanding of various perspectives and moral values. The authors use the metaphor of a mirror to show goodness as a value that requires discovery from different perspectives and diverse contexts. The book engages young readers by developing their imagination, empathy and ability to reflect on ethical and social values. This is an example of children's literature and at the same time addressed to adult readers.
