520 # # |a Defining picture books as that distinctive type of publication in contemporary children's literature in which the written narrative is brief and the story line or other content is largely presented through illustrations, this book critically explores some of the problems of contemporary picture books, examining why some qualities in picture books enhance the pleasure children find in them, why others detract, and why others are a mixed blessing. Emphasis is upon literary and graphic elements, and rigid age categories are avoided. Subject matter is arranged according to historical perspective, stereotypes in illustration, graphic elements, outstanding contemporary illustrators, book design, literary elements, outstanding narrative writers, specialized texts, the Caldecott Award, and the child, the librarian, and the critic.
