Today’s society stresses the importance of written communication. Therefore the picture book seems less important to the public. As soon as one has learnt to read, the literary sphere changes radically and the picture book is often forgotten. But there are many benefits of working with picture books in education even after the pupils have learnt to read. Working with young students poses the problem of making sure they all have the opportunity to display their knowledge to the teachers and to share and develop it with the class. One way of doing so is through book talks. But there are different views of what a good book talk is. My aim is to identify and discuss some of the benefits of the picture book in everyday schoolwork. I discuss the benefits of book talks around picture books for both students and teacher. To do this I have conducted a descriptive literature study in which I consider relevant research. On the basis of my literature study and engagement with previous research, I find that book talks about picture books may have a positive impact on education the teacher is well pepared and open to the students own reflections.
