This collection offers a thorough treatment of the ways in which
the verbal and visual semiotic modes interrelate toward promoting
gender equality and social inclusion in children's picture books.
Drawing on cutting-edge theoretical work in multimodality,
including multimodal cognitive linguistics, multimodal discourse
analysis, and visual social semiotics, the book expands on
descriptive-oriented studies to offer a more linguistically driven
perspective on children's picture books. The volume explores the
choice afforded to and the lexico-semantic and discursive
strategies employed by writers and illustrators in conveying
representational, interpersonal, and textual meanings in the verbal
and non-verbal components in these narratives in order to challenge
gender stereotypes and promote the social inclusion of same-sex
parent families. This book will be of particular interest to
students and scholars in multimodality, discourse analysis, social
semiotics, and children's literature. Chapters 1 & 8 of this
book are freely available as downloadable Open Access PDFs under a
Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0
