Children's Picture Book

At the beginning of 21st century, children's picture book in China became more and more prosperously. It not only affected the publishing market, but also entered the pre-school education's vision. Then, this article mainly focuses on analyzing the relationship between the children's picture book and pre-school education.My research is divided into three parts:In the first part, the author presents a general review of the children's picture book, including the definition and the basic structure and the historical development at home and abroad, to answer what is the children's picture book.The second part will focus on the relationship between the children's picture book and pre-school education, to answer what are the details of its educational value.The study showed that the children'picture book always present story by a large of pictures, which makes these pre-school children who are not literate to read, and promote their language skills, observation, imagination, aesthetic ability, logical thinking and emotional and moral training. Moreover, the children's picture book is the best medium for parent-child reading. Its story shows the child's view of the world, to help adults understand the child's inner world, and its artistic content can help adults improve their appreciative ability, t at the meanwhile, closing the distance between adults and children literature. However, resent information shows that the children's picture book sales not very well. Still many people do not care of its existence. But according to the above study results, I suggest that there is no problem with the children's picture book itself, but its means of development. So I proceeded with the third part of the study.In the third part, I choose Shanghai to conduct a case study to achieve a further understanding of the current situation of the children's picture book. By surveying 410 people, the study shows that the lack of communication is the mainly problem. Parents, pre-school teachers and press has their own ideas, but can not find a way to share and cooperate, which resulting a lot of misunderstanding and hinder the development of the children's picture book.
