From a click to a gesture: a contribution to defining the concept of children’s e-picturebooks

Pinto, Ana Lúcia; Zagalo, Nelson; Coquet, Eduarda

Article:

This communication aims contribute to define the concept of children’s e-picturebooks. There should be a reflection on this subject and on the place that e-picturebook occupies or may occupy, in the children’s reading’s field. Will be the focus of attention: a) generic characteristics of picturebooks; b) the specificities of e-picturebooks; c) the value that applied media, with its intrinsic qualities, assumes in e- picturebooks, together with the identification of some possibilities for the future’s development of research on these artefacts, taking into account the increasing value of digital media, as mediators of multimodal nar- ratives, aimed at children.
