Abstract

The analysis forming the basis of this article focuses on verbal and visual aspects of the picture book Infinity and Me. First, it provides the reader with the concept of infinity stating some examples from children’s literature. Then it continues with the importance of the child’s aspect in this picture book. It moves onto the verbal elements of the picture book (style and the point of view and figurative language) and then the visual elements (line, area, form, shape, light and colour and rhythm and symmetry).
