Question 1
In your own words explain what a picture book is.
A picture book is a type of book that primarily relies on illustrations to tell a story. It is designed
for young readers, often children, and combines visual elements with a limited amount of text.
The illustrations play a crucial role in conveying the narrative, and the text is usually concise
and supportive of the images. Picture books aim to engage and captivate readers through the
harmonious integration of words and pictures, making them an effective and enjoyable
medium for storytelling, particularly for early literacy development in children.

Question 2
Read the nursery rhyme and look at the accompanying picture before answering the questions
below.
Gross is...
You know that something really
gross is
a lion with bad halitosis.
If he roars on a windy day
You smell his breath three miles
away!

The nursery rhyme and accompanying picture playfully describe something "gross" by
imagining a lion with bad breath. The picture depicts a brown lion with its mouth open, and
instead of traditional breath, straight leaves are coming out, perhaps symbolizing the
unpleasantness of the lion's breath. The white frame contrasts with the lively and colorful
leaves on the left side, creating a visually interesting composition.
The humor in the rhyme comes from the exaggeration of the lion's bad breath being so
potent that you can smell it three miles away. The use of a lion, a powerful and majestic
animal, adds a whimsical element to the concept of something being "gross." The
combination of amusing text and vivid illustrations aims to entertain and engage young
readers, making the learning experience enjoyable.
