Description

Recently many picture books have been published, and they are used largely for the purpose of orally teaching the Japanese language to young children. Certainly behind the present popularity of picture books for children there are numerous efforts that have been made for children's literature by scholars, writers, publishers, and librarians since the end of the war. But further efforts seem to be necessary to know how to convey a sense of our time to children in reading books to them. How can we do it? To give an answer to the question, here I will review "ezoshi" picture books of the Edo Period, the earliest form of picture books for children.
