Abstract:

We present empirical results that demonstrate temporal intervals in story time affect narrative structure. Eight native English-speaking adults estimated the duration of intervals between events depicted in consecutive pictures in Mercer and Marianna Mayer’s wordless picture books, and a separate group of 37 adults wrote stories to accompany these picture books. Analyses revealed that adults used significantly more temporal connectives (when, while, etc.) after long intervals than short ones. We argue that writers use temporal anchors to help readers update the temporal dimension of discourse

Abstract:

This article brings together the theory of picture books and the methods of integrated reading of picture books by groups of adults with reading or understanding difficulties. When considering a picture book, which is a particular book format in itself, one needs to understand that it comprises three key ingredients: text, illustration and visual-verbal interaction. A picture book tells a story in two languages and is limited in length. The examples of quality picture books showcased here include picture books that are (also) appropriate for adults, which means they have a wider age span and r

Abstract:

Incompetent Parents and Competent Children. A Significant Theme in 21st Century Scandinavian Picture Books In our time, the task of parenting seems fraught with anxiety. Such parental angst is manifested, for instance, in the extensive number of books and tv-programs aimed at guiding parents in child rearing. Fictional works, including children’s literature, also feature an increasing interest in parental failure or dysfunction, which stands in sharp contrast to the high standards society places upon the act of parenting. In the 21st Century, the issue is becoming more and more profound

Both books recount a history of Brown’s life and antislavery work, situated within Brown’s African American context and recounted from a Black perspective. While Graham’s books are exceptional in their extended treatment of this historic figure for a child audience, they are not unprecedented. This essay situates Graham’s children’s biog

Educators, parents, caregivers, or other adults around children need to set up a stimulating role by providing a conducive environment for children to reach their full potential. Questions were asked about social, emotional, and independent life, ethical and religious principles, language skills, cognitive, physical/motor, and artistic potential. Language is a tool of communication with other people. The teacher-child approach, which is the subject of this qualitative research, is the method adopted in this study. A method known as "p

Abstract:

This paper aims to provide the readers with an overview of the nature of sound symbolism in Italian and offers new food for thought to scholars in the under-researched field of sound symbolism in translated literature for young readers. Whilst English uses ideophones in literature for young readers, Italian sound symbolism often seems to rely on Anglophonic creations, arguably due to both linguistic and cultural reasons. The third and fourth books of the series for children and young adults, ‘Diary of a Wimpy Kid’, have been taken as a source for examples. The books contain both text and pictu

Abstract:

In this article, I report on my reading of a debate between two practitioners and scholars of philosophy with children – Karin Murris and Darren Chetty. The parts of their exchanges I have chosen to focus on relate to a children's book called Tusk Tusk by David McKee. Their respective arguments raise questions for me about the relationship between the starting text (or stimulus) and issues of importance in the wider world. Although Chetty sees benefits in using picture books, he appears to believe there is an over-reliance on fables and other magical tales and that alternative starting points

It is somehow traditional a grandma reads to small children and a grandpa tells stories, but in real life these are rare opportunities nowadays. There are some projects encouraging elder people to read to children in kindergartens and in public libraries. There are more and more examples that young people read to elder people in retirement homes. All intergenerational reading possibilities could deepen the enjoyment of loud interpersonal reading. The paper presents one of the Slovene projects of the intergenerational reading that tends to bring together young people and grown-up, elder people

There is a unique and growing population which is often ignored in public libraries: the elderly, especially those who may be suffering some cognitive decline. They need books, but not just any book. Finding appropriate materials that are easy to follow, comfortable to read, and yet still geared towards adults can be challenging, but it is possible and can really make a difference for this often-overlooked group of patrons.

Abstract The purpose of this project was to analyze how older adults were portrayed in children’s media. Children are shaped by the media that they consume, and since the media often features negative or inaccurate portrayals of older adults, it has the potential to impact how children view this population. A total of 30 children’s picture books (published in the last 10 years) and 15 children’s shows on Disney+ and PBS Kids were analyzed for their portrayal of older adults. Each piece of media was analyzed for examples of: stereotypes/myths, positive and negative portrayals, and roles older a

Emotional regulation has a critical influence on an individual’s mental health and personality. In the long run, negative coping styles will create antisocial personalities. In recent years, the data on single-parent families has increased significantly, resulting in a sharp increase in the number of single-parent children. Without positive guidance of adults, children are usually unable to get rid of the negative effects brought by single-parent families, let alone acquiring good emotional development. Therefore, given the age development characteristics of children aged 5-6 and the anxiety a
