I thought it was interesting to find out Picture Books are a form not a genre. What is great about picture books is the illustrations and they are great extension of the words. This can be hard to do. Picture books are hard to write. To get a a whole story in about 32 pages can be tough.
In class Pickett mentioned when she read to her daughter some of her of her favorite books as a child. She said she can think back of the time she read them. I find myself feeling and thinking back to when I was a kid when I read to my children too. That is one of the great parts of any story; it takes you back to a time you can remember and it opens up good times or bad times. The cycle continues and one day my daughter or son will feel the same way when they read to children.
