Picture books are picture books, which are a new and unique type of children's literature. They are different from what we usually call picture books, picture stories, comics and picture books, and also different from ordinary picture books. In the picture book, the picture is the main body, which has the function of telling stories and undertakes the task of narrative lyric and expression. Illustrations in general story books are just an auxiliary means to make the story more vivid and intuitive.

In picture books, pictures are no longer the embellishment of words, but the lifeblood of books. Even some picture books have no words, only pictures are telling stories. Picture books attach great importance to the continuity of emotion and theme, and form a continuous visual image in just a few dozen pages. The author and painter of picture books are equivalent to film directors. He must tell the story beautifully and clearly in a limited space. An excellent picture book can make children who can't read "read" the meaning. In addition, the picture books are beautiful and the layout is unique. The front cover, the title page, the text and the back cover form an almost perfect whole.
