    1 The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art: Celebrating the Art of the Picture Book Marion E. Rocco The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas, USA ([email protected]) Abstract: While books and illustrations for children are often regarded as secondary art forms, The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art in Amherst, Massachusetts is thoughtfully honoring the art of the picture book. Founded in 2002 by Eric and Barbara Carle, The Carle is a full-scale art museum dedicated to collecting, exhibiting, and celebrating picture book art from around the world. In this paper, I examine how the exhibitions and educational programming of The Carle demonstrate the museum’s authentic commitment to and respect for the art of the picture book. Key words: illustration, art, picture books, Eric Carle, museum. Through its exhibitions and educational programming, the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art in Amherst, Massachusetts is celebrating the picture book as a unique and innovative art form. Illustration may still be relegated to minority status in some circles, but at The Carle, picture book art is honored. By hanging the original illustrations in a gallery setting and inviting visitors to engage with the art in a variety of ways, The Carle is fulfilling its mission to cultivate an appreciation for and understanding of the art of the picture book. Introduction and Background The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art opened in 2002 as the first full- scale museum in the United States devoted to collecting and exhibiting the art of the picture book.

  • Best Children's Picture Books from Abroad:Valuing Other
    —————————————————▲—————————————————— BEST CHILDREN'S PICTURE BOOKS FROM ABROAD:VALUING OTHER CULTURES Maureen White Assistant Professor of Education University of Houston-Clear Lake 2700 Bay Area Blvd., Box 347 Houston, TX 77058-1098 USA E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Translated children’s books can play an important role in helping children develop an understanding of other people. Outstanding picture books in this specialized genre affirm the fact that each person is unique, but there are universal themes and feelings that every person possesses, regardless of culture or language. A comparison of the past six years of Caldecott Award Winners and outstanding translated children’s books provides insights into their similarities and differences. While the Caldecott books all seem to be big, bright, and beautiful, the translated picture books selected for study seem to be diverse in style, medium, and bookmanship. INTRODUCTION Children's literature, and especially children's picture books, can be a venue for understanding and valuing our own culture and the culture of others. Valuing another culture is based on the understanding that each person is unique, but that people have universal feelings and needs that bind us together. Literature can allow for this understanding even when language is a barrier. This is accomplished through seamless translations from the original language into the language of another reader. Translated children's books can provide the opportunity for children to read the literature from other languages and experience the common themes that tie us together; themes such as the need for friendships, love, hope, the healing aspect of humor, fear of the unknown, and the need for safety.
