A Picture Book Primer: Understanding and Using Picture Books
Everything you want to know about picture books can be found in this simple and straightforward guide. After defining the picture book and describing its history and technological evolution, the author helps you better understand and appreciate picture books by describing how they're made-their anatomy, types of illustration, layouts, design elements, and typography-various types of picture books (genres, formats, styles), how picture books work (the art of the story), and how they relate to child development and literacy.
The stories are prizewinning entries in the category Strange Stories in the Competition for Writers of Children's Books organized by Children's Book Trust.
