Norwegian picture books attract attention and win awards internationally. Nevertheless, picture books aren't much used in Norwegian classrooms and researchers aren't paying them much attention.
The international composition of this research group will enable comparative studies, especially between picture books in the Scandinavian countries, but also between Scandinavian picture books and German, French, English and Portuguese picture books.
This research group belongs to the Faculty of Education and International Studies.
