Pictures books are one of the communication tools for talking with children about severe diseases. However, little research is available about the contents of picture books about cancer for children. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the contents of children’s picture books about cancer and explore the advantages and disadvantages of using picture books to communicate with children about cancer. Methods: We searched the picture books about cancer written for children aged under ten years old on the Amazon.com Web site on 5 July 2019 and hand-searched on the cancer-related institutes’ Web site. We extracted the texts of relevant picture books and conducted a content analysis of them. Results: We identified 2555 picture books and included 30 of them. We identified three main contents, 1) cancer-related knowledge, 2) impacts of cancer, and 3) dealing with cancer. These contents were written with simple words and illustrations. Some of them included the essential contents, which might be misunderstood by children. Conclusions: Picture books might be helpful for children to understand about cancer. However, as these books do not include all contents, it is necessary to select and use multiple books depending on the content which is wanted to tell the child. Further research should evaluate the impacts of these books as a communication tool when talking with children diagnosed with cancer.展开更多

Picture language is more intuitive than text symbols, more in line with the characteristics of children’s thinking, and can stimulate children’s interest in reading. Hina Baek is a famous picture book writer in Korea. Her unique picture book visual style is represented through hand-crafted miniature figures, carefully designed lighting, and photography. This study utilizes how to create engaging imagery from the book How to Be a Children’s Book Illustrator to analyze Baek’s picture books. From this preliminary study, the research proposes revising the analysis method to further investigate the characteristics of children’s picture books from the background elements and picture elements.展开更多

Integrated curriculum is an important direction in the development of kindergarten teaching. The organic combination of picture books and music teaching not only provides a broader development field for kindergartens, but also promotes the growth and development of children. However, at present, my countrys kindergartens still have some deficiencies in the integration of the two. Therefore, we should deeply analyze the current situation of the use of picture books in kindergarten music education before we can formulate practical countermeasures.展开更多

To carry out English teaching in a scientific and reasonable way is of great significance to the cultivation of primary school students' core qualities such as language ability, cultural awareness and learning ability. Using English picture books to carry out reading teaching is a new trend in English teaching in recent years. There are many stories with complete context in English picture books. Using these stories to carry out English teaching can on the one hand stimulate students' interest in learning English, and on the other hand help students get more language input. In view of this, it is very necessary to promote the integration of primary school English picture books reading and main textbooks. Therefore, based on my own teaching experience, the author explores the strategy of integrating English picture books with main textbooks in order to provide theoretical basis for primary school English teachers' teaching.展开更多

English classes in primary schools are of fundamental significance in cultivating students' cultural awareness, while English picture books become suitable teaching materials due to their innate advantages of rich pictures and texts. The selection of picture books suitable for cultivating cultural awareness needs to consider multiple factors: the creator's cultural background, the authenticity of cultural content, avoiding "stereotypes", the presentation of human cultural commonness and individuality, and the diversity of picture books. The themes of picture books include but are not limited to ethnic diversity, gender equality and personality education.展开更多
