Being Silent About the Truth
Lying and deceiving are prominent topics in ethical narration. This has to do with an often absolutist stance against lying that shapes a large part of philosophical, religious, and political discourses. At the same time, lying and deceiving are topics in the field of moral education in which moral values such as honesty, sincerity, and truthfulness are propagated. Bringing these issues together, this article demonstrates how reflection about hon…

On Photos and Drawings in Baby Books. A Comparison Based on Dining Scenes
This article offers a comparative analysis of the aesthetic functions of photos vs. drawings in baby books. Baby books are understood as books for children between 0 and 3 years of age. Since the development of food intake and eating behavior is very important at this age, appropriate pictures of dining scenes can be found in many baby books. This article compares picturebooks for babies that show dining scenes, with two photo books, Trine kan...…
Our Daily Bread
This article focuses on three East German descriptive picturebooks from the 1950s that explain the production of bread, milk, and fish. These production stories not only convey knowledge by means of the juxtaposition of text and images but also emphasize the achievements of the five-year plan with respect to the provision of food for the citizens of the German Democratic Republic. This combination of information and propagandistic messages served…
Introduction
Over two centuries after the Brothers Grimm started their work on Die Kinder- und Hausmärchen (Children’s and Household Tales, 1812‒1815), their fairy tales have not lost their appeal to readers, authors and, as the contributors in this special issue explore, illustrators. The history of illustrated editions of the Grimms’ tales did not start in Germany – the first German edition had no illustrations, while the second edition of 1815 had just two…
Multiple Levels of Meaning
This chapter focuses on three German picturebook versions of fairytales by the Brothers Grimm which were published in the 21st century. A short introduction provides an overview on the reception and illustration of the Grimms’ fairytales in Germany in the 19th and 20th centuries. Against this background, this contribution demonstrates that the selected picturebooks use different artistic techniques and styles in order to carve out the hidden pote…
Exploring Challenging Picturebooks in Education
This chapter addresses the question of how adding a dedicated app to an already challenging picturebook adds complications to the nature of the challenge. Pīsim Finds her Miskanow, written by William Dumas and illustrated by Leonard Paul is a historical picturebook fiction based in the pre-conquest history of the Rocky Cree in northern Manitoba. In itself, it challenges many stereotypes of Indigenous life in Canada, and its lavish production valu…

Romantic and Jewish Images of Childhood in Maurice Sendak's Dear Mili
This article focuses on the intertwinement of the Romantic and the Jewish tradition in Maurice Sendak's picture book Dear Mili (1988) whose original text was based on a legend retold by Wilhelm Grimm, the German fairy tale collector. This picture book demonstrates precisely the extent to which the project of writing about Jewish children is influenced by elements of Romantic thought such as proximity to nature, the child as symbol of hope, the co…
