 * Assignment 1 - Picturebook Reading File 1 (15 books). Due date: 3/27/12**



Select and carefully read/inspect 30 (or more) picturebooks. Include picturebooks for younger and older readers (varied by style, media). (You can also include board books, alphabet and number books, Mother Goose/Nursery Rhymes, engineered (features book—flaps, moveable parts), wordless, and patterned (predictable) books. And if you wish, you can include graphic novels.) **In particular, seek out picturebooks that are new to you!!!** For each entry in your file, document your **careful inspection** that reflects the facets of picturebooks that we will be exploring in class. In addition to noting the title, author, and illustrator of the book (and date of publication), consider writing about the following: genre, medium, style of illustration, interplay of pictures and text, book design, illustration composition, peritextual features, and other elements of note. Your professional readings and our class investigations may suggest other features worth writing about in the file. In particular, highlight elements that you find of particular note for each book. Bring your picturebook file to class each night (you’ll likely add to it in class). __Evaluative criteria__: The degree to which your entries reflect a **thoughtful** reading and **in-depth** analysis.
