A picture’s worth a thousand words, but a great picture book? Priceless!
The Grown-Up’s Guide To Picture Books explores the complexities of modern picture books, from why our favourites tend to linger so long in our memories, to how we can maximise the deep reading opportunities they provide once we’ve learned to ‘read between the lines’.
For parents, carers, teachers, librarians, aspiring writers and any grown-up who simply loves picture books. This is your deep dive celebration of what makes a great picture book great.
‘I know of no other book that will so quickly improve a grown-up’s ability to engage more deeply with that which is so human – the combination of words and pictures to tell stories.’
