The Magical World of Multicultural Picture Books
10 Nov 2021 – 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM Nunawading Library
Speaker: Dr Sue Chen, School of Communication and Creative Arts, Deakin University
Multicultural books are important because they can provide windows into other cultures and introduce readers to new ideas. They can also help readers from under-represented groups see themselves reflected in literature. This talk will highlight a range of multicultural picture books that celebrate cultural diversity, focusing on the relationship between word and image and how the verbal and the visual elements work together to produce a dynamic story.
