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 ➤➤
