Arab
Children Book Culture:
Current Status, Challenges and means for
Development
Dr. Muhammad Merai Merai-Syria
Abstract:
This research tries to highlight the culture of Arab children
books which can be distinguished in its content from children
literature, mainly which is concerned with prose and poetry. This
shows the importance and characteristics of this culture. It also
shows the current status of Arab children books and the motivations
behind the publications of such books and the trends that enhance
them along with the responsibilties of parents and teachers to
boost this field.
However, publications of children books are committed to certain
standards, as long as multiple factors should define the contents
of thier components; moreover, subjects should necessarily suit
the stages of childhood. Nevertheless, they should take into consideration
the circumstances and the characteristics for each society.
Nowadays,children books are facing massive obstacles,which are
imposed by competitor medias, that aim to gather the majority
of little spectators, through attractively providing audio-visual
programs that are accompanied with sonic and harmonic effects,
as well as colorful lines and pictures.
Finally,will Arab children books be aware of those challenges?.
Or are authors and writers ready for such a mission?
