Word of the month: #reflect
This is getting to be cliché.
Great book for taking about bossy behavior without using the word bossy or making it gender normative.

Word of the month: #reflect
A moment of reflection in Flat Cat by Tara Lazar. When the illustration conveys meaning without words so succinctly, what is that called?

Ruthiella A “pictograph” maybe? (edited) 8mo
mandarchy @Ruthiella I'm not sure that describes how the images convey the same meaning, I think it needs to be more specific, but not too simple. 8mo
mandarchy I think I found something close: image conventions. Illustrators are using standard expressions to convey meaning from which we infer more information. 🤯 8mo

Leo makes a decision.
Illustrations in kid-lit are often described as simple (condescending?). The concept of reflection is not simple. In drawing, gesture is the technique used to convey meaning, but we don't label illustrations like we name literary devices. Maybe if we did, educators would teach more using graphic novels. What would you call them though?
