Ask Design Mom: Books Without Words

Question:
We discovered a fun book called Chalk by Bill Thomson — it’s a picture book with no words. Do you or your readers have suggestions for other picture books that require the reader to invent the story? Thanks for your great site! — Andrea

Answer:
That’s such a fun question, Andrea! Books without words are great for all ages. One of the recent wordless favorites at our house is The Lion & the Mouse which I posted about a few weeks ago. We also love Zoom.

What about you Dear Readers? What are your favorite wordless picture books?

  1. Like other have mentioned, Good Night Gorilla is a perennial favorite in our house. My 2.5-year-old will read it to me at night.
