I am Sandie and I focus on the picturebook peritext, – “Peritext is what makes a book a book” – and it is extra special in picturebooks. If you would like to learn even more about peritext, check out these links: Wendy Watson’s blog 1 ; Wendy Watson’s blog 2; Picturebooks in ELT Endpapers; Picturebooks in ELT Peritext
We use specific meta-language when we talk about peritext and picturebooks, so we have prepared a glossary with these terms just in case you are interested.
