Today (July 21), my booklist – Wordless
Picture Books is being highlighted on Bookroo’s front page! I’ve been
passionate about wordless picture books for a long time because I love how
versatile they can be.
If you’re not familiar with wordless
picture books or are unsure of how to “read” them, let me offer a little
information and a few suggestions!
What is a wordless picture book?
Wordless picture books are just that –
picture books without any (or very few) words. These books use illustrations to
tell the story. They can be about any topic and can be used for a wide range of
age levels.
How do you “read” a wordless book?
There’s no right or wrong way to use
these great books. As an adult, if you just scan the illustrations and tell a
story that works! However, if you have a very interactive child ask them to
share what they think is happening. If you’re somewhere in between, ask a few
pointed questions to get the story started!
Use the illustrations! Talk about the
emotions of the characters, what types of tricks do illustrators use to share
emotion? Take a look at the setting and use it to describe the story in greater
detail. Or make up a new story about a smaller character in the book. READ MORE
