Use Your imagination with Picture Books

May 06, 2026

Books without words give you the opportunity to create your own story. How?

  1. Look at the pictures and talk about what is happening.
  2. Describe the characters.
  3. Ask “why” questions. 
  4. Predict what you think will happen next.
  5. Let your child tell their own story.
  6. Ask what questions they have about the book.
