It has been observed on the high
notes that children are more attracted or glued to the books where the stories
are told using the illustrative images, rather than the regular ones that have
blank textual pages and no drawings over it. As an adult, we believe that the storyline is the only thing that matters in the books whether there are any
graphical images or not, but, things are little different when it comes to the
mentality of kids.
Children book illustrations are an excellent tool
to help the kids developed their analytical and interpretative skills. Aloes,
the fact is undeniable that illustrations boost up their enjoyment and
motivates them to relish their art & crafts skills. There are so many
reasons that depict why the significance of the illustrations for the
children’s book. Let’s dig a little deeper, and study profoundly at some of the
vital reason that articulates the importance of illustrations in children’s
novels.
1.
Helpful In Motivating the
Kids to Read Books
Try giving a child to read a book
that has no images, and they will look at your face with complete silence.
Whenever the parents want to keep their kids busy with some activity, they
always give them a coloring book or a storybook with illustrations in it. The
only reason is that kids are inspired by the illustrations that are sketched
out to tell the story. Colors and drawings are the two things that please the
kids and helps them to build up their interest in books, and eventually results
in motivating them towards reading.
2.
Build up Children’s
Visual Thinking
Children have a hard time
visualizing things on their own, which is why when you tell them a story, every
kid takes it differently and reacts distinctly upon it. With the help of the
illustrations, it gets easier for the children to anticipate and understand
what the story is about. It will help them grab the concepts and improves their
visualization skills.
3.
Helps Kids to Strengthen
Their Confidence & Control
Childhood is truly a confusing era where children are often confused with what they have to do and what they
have to avoid. With the help of illustrations in the book, they gain confidence
as they will be able to control the actual speed of the story such as making a
pause at the pages, repeat whatever is necessary, read according to their pace,
etc.
