Modra Lasta
''Modra lasta'' (English: ''The Blue Swallow'') is a Croatian children's magazine geared for primary school students. It is published monthly by Školska knjiga. History The very first issue, titled ''Djeca za Djecu'' ('' yChildren for Children'') was published in Zagreb in 1954 by Josip Sabolović, a primary school teacher, and featured contributions by his pupils. The editor-in-chief was Blankica Veselić. The first issue had only four black-and-white pages containing a few essays, drawings and song lyrics made by pupils. ''Djeca za Djecu'' soon got very popular so the following issues included contributions by pupils from other Zagreb schools, and eventually, from schools in other cities around the country. As the project grew larger, more adults got involved in it, so the magazine needed a new name. In 1959 a readership poll was held to determine the new name and the winning suggestion was ''Plava lasta'' (''The Blue Swallow'') - but since there was already a newspaper called ...

The paper was later published in various locations until Split was liberated on 26 October 1944. From the following day onward, ''Slobodna Dalmacija'' has been published in Split.
