For many children whose Grandma or Dad spent hours reading to them from illustrated books, these hours have opened the gateway to reading for themselves.

Adult readers, who are often not practised readers themselves, will benefit from the illustrations in much the same way, by helping them to visualise characters and settings.

The comparative study of these books reveals much about how texts and pictures interact, and at the same time shows up cultural developments and differences.
