While picture books are suitable for children of most ages, it is often the most enjoyed by children aged 3 to 6 years old. Unlike board books which tend to be less of a story but more of a guide to help babies and toddlers understand the world, picture books have a stronger emphasis on storytelling with a clear beginning, middle and end.
