Children’s picture books are exceptionally unique and essential in the whole illustration art, as they are created for children, mainly with pictures and a small amount of text explanation. Picture language is more intuitive than text symbols, more in line with the characteristics of children’s thinking, and can stimulate children’s interest in reading. Hina Baek is a famous picture book writer in Korea. Her unique picture book visual style is represented through hand-crafted miniature figures, carefully designed lighting, and photography. This study utilizes how to create engaging imagery from the book How to Be a Children’s Book Illustrator to analyze Baek’s picture books. From this preliminary study, the research proposes revising the analysis method to further investigate the characteristics of children’s picture books from the background elements and picture elements.
