Talk:Zetta Elliott

Children's picture books
It is reasonable (important in my opinion) to distinguish children's picture books as a category of Works --called Zetta Elliott here now-- wherein the illustrations are at least as important as the text. Elliott always works with an illustrator, apparently, rather than self-illustrate.

Why try distinguish young adult novels from those for "middle grade" children, which must be a subset of the wide-ranging young-adult concepts that are out there (American English only, this may be). --P64 (talk) 01:41, 2 May 2022 (UTC)


 * "The City Books series is aimed at much younger readers, ages 6 (kindergarten) to 10 (4th grade)."
 * I had supposed that "middle grade", a few paragraphs down, implies older children than this series. But our own article middle grade mentions ages 8-12 [US school grades 2-7, or nearly everyone thru grades 3-6], which is quite some overlap.
 * The main point stands: picture book texts are very different. --P64 (talk) 02:06, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
