Abstract

"What children get from an international picture book that they don't get from an American picture book," says Susan Stan, "is something that they can't see and probably can't articulate: a shift in perspective that can range from unnoticeable to stimulating to disorienting" (2). All of these reactions, her book goes on to argue, are valuable to the development of a young reader and global citizen.
