The Art tells the Tale of Two Canadian Cultures

Kallie George University of British Columbia

Abstract

To compare French and English-Canadian picture books seems not only logical, but a beginning place for examining the differences and similarities of the cultures of Canada as a bilingual country, especially since children's books are created, published and produced by adults for children and thus contain adult morés, which include culturally based morés.
