  • Source citation: Kennedy, E. What is a picture book? - the definition, via About.com website, Oct. 6, 2016
  • Information found: (A picture book is a book, usually a children's book, in which the illustrations are as important as (or even more important than) the words in telling the story. Picture books have traditionally been 32 pages long, although Little Golden Books are 24 pages. In picture books, there are illustrations on every page or on one of every pair of facing pages. While most picture books are written for younger children, in recent years, a number of excellent picture books for upper elementary and middle school readers have been published. The definition of "children's picture book" and the categories of children's picture books have also expanded in recent years. The definition of children's picture book was greatly expanded when Brian Selznick won the 2008 Caldecott Medal for picture book illustration for his book The Invention of Hugo Cabret, a 525-page middle grade novel that told the story not only in words but in a series of sequential illustrations (more than 280 pages interspersed throughout the book in sequences of multiple pages). Common categories of children's picture books: picture book biographies; wordless picture books; classic picture books)

  • Information found: (A "picture book for children" as distinguished from other books with illustrations, is one that essentially provides the child with a visual experience. A picture book has a collective unity of story-line, theme, or concept, developed through the series of pictures of which the book is comprised. A "picture book for children" is one for which children are an intended potential audience. The book displays respect for children's understandings, abilities, and appreciations. Children are defined as persons of ages up to and including fourteen and picture books for this entire age range are to be considered.")
