When I read picture books, I’m looking for the ones that include all the right words, but none of the extra, unnecessary ones, the ones that make the illustrator superfluous and the children bored. To me, the most magical of picture book texts leave space … for the illustrator to tell her own story, the reader to breathe, and the child to imagine.
