This paper explores the mechanism of tranmediation in terms of the potential for picture story books in elementary school English in Japan. After presenting the background regarding the use of illustrations in language education, the article focuses specifically on the mechanism of transmediation in terms of using the illustrations that accompany such story books and how varying uses of these illustrations can enhance language learning. The results point to the appropriate and effective use of story books in a manner that capitalizes on the potential of the accompanying illustrations and thereby increases the language learning potential of the story.
