<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My family teases me about my vast collection of picture books. They say I can open a library out of our home. I give picture books as gifts to recipients of all ages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are works of art! Literally! I am constantly amazed at the artistic skill of the illustrators. The authors magically make the readers feel inspired, cozy, seen, happy, and mighty in just 32 pages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Behold, the Picture Book <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mac Barnett<\/a>\u00a0was recently named the\u00a0National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature<\/a>. This prestigious appointment comes with an opportunity to choose a platform on which to focus for the tenure. Barnett named his theme,\u00a0Behold, the Picture Book! Let’s Celebrate Stories We Can Feel, Hear, and See<\/em>, to elevate the status of these texts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we take a moment to consider the talent required to create a book that makes the reader feel so deeply and to acknowledge the special rituals that often surround snuggled-up book reading time, the word “behold” is perfect. These books have become beloved by children. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Barnett says in an\u00a0interview with NPR<\/a>, “The picture book is my favorite art form. It’s such an incredible, vibrant, exciting, forward-looking, experimental art form.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rebellious Read Alouds <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

OPEC’s Training Academy<\/a>\u00a0hosted former kindergarten teacher and author, Vera Ahiyya, to discuss her book,\u00a0Rebellious Read Alouds<\/em><\/a>\u00a0and the power of picture books. She shared staggering statistics about\u00a0diverse representation in picture books<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Animals are the 2nd most popular primary character, and Ahiyya said children are less likely to emulate book behavior from an animal character than they are from a person. Learning valuable lessons from books would have a larger impact if the characters were people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ahiyya reiterated the importance of reading “mirrors, windows, and sliding doors” books, an idea coined by Dr. Rudine Sims Bishop.\u00a0Dr. Bishop suggests that we need all three types of books<\/a>. Mirror books reflect the reader’s experience; they see themselves in the story. Window books help the reader see into other worlds. Sliding glass door books help the reader enter into another world through empathy.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finding a “Just Right” Book <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As a classroom teacher, I loved the challenge of matching the\u00a0perfect<\/em>\u00a0book to a student. Learning a student’s interests and reading ability, thinking through my favorite stories, and handing a child a book they loved was highly fulfilling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love seeing a kid who is learning to read and cautiously sounding out words, laughing at the book in their hands instead of throwing it down in boredom or frustration. Our school and public librarians create magical storytimes and community outreach events that help libraries become important “third places<\/a>” for children and families.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf we think that children’s books are anything less than real literature, it’s because we think kids are something less than real people. If we believe they’re real people, then they deserve good art.” – Mac Barnett<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
