Abstract:
The Chinese market for children’s picture books has seen phenomenal change over the past decade. Boasting a stable group of potential readers and healthy organic growth in market share, foreign children’s picture books – especially ones imported from Europe and America – became many Chinese parents’ priority, rendering their domestic counterparts subordinate. This paper explores children’s picture books published in the United States from a gender perspective. Employing measures of content and text analysis, we especially compare and contrast the variables such as frequency of male and female characters, character setting and personality cultivation in American picture books in an effort to develop an internationalized vision and strategy for the development of domestic children’s books.
