Abstract

This study was to examine the characteristics of 68 picture books published in Korea in the early 2000s. The characteristics of picture books were to be analyzed by a feminist approach, focusing on the texts and pictures of books recommended by 4 lists <Good Book Lists>. The results were as follows: 1. Translated foreign books in the subjects accounted for two times more than that of Korean books. 2. In the aspects of authors, most of them were in their 30s-40s, and there were two times more men authors than women authors. 3. The main characters, girls and boys, maintained a balanced percentage but not for adults. Men appeared twice more than women, and the highest percentage of animals and things was gender-neutral. 4. The attitudes of girls and women were negative and dependent and girls’ clothes were mostly skirts. Boys and men’s attitudes appeared positive, independent, aggressive or troublesome. Some grandmothers were represented as side-stream characters, and women’s social conditions or contributions seldom appeared. 5. Men, as fathers, were participating in child-rearing with several types of play, but not in households. 6. In the perspectives of feminism, girls and boys of the subjects had equal rights as human beings, participated in physical activities equally, and they behaved independently and wisely. However, the subtle unfairness to women remained in many pages of picture books.
