Picturebooks are a very special genre in that words and pictures cooperate to create the intended message of the authors/illustrators. Words and pictures often do not deliver the exact same message. It is this discrepancy which creates the tension and interest, which prompts readers to enjoy interpreting the message while moving from verbal to visual signs and vice versa, that is, visual to verbal signs. The existing literature separately deals with the categorization of word-picture interactions and the reader’s interpretation process while switching from one sign system to the other. This paper addresses the categorization and the interpretation simultaneously. It illustrates how three different types of the word-picture interaction are interpreted when readers switch their attentions from words to pictures and from pictures to words with the picturebooks A Big Fat Enormous Lie; The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry, and the Big Hungry Bear; and All By Myself.
