Abstract

The present study was conducted with the aim of determining the appropriateness of the illustrations in the Persian first grade elementary school book and identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the book's illustrations. The research method is qualitative with an evaluation approach, and the study population was all first grade elementary teachers in the country, as well as children's book illustrators and educational psychology specialists. 720 first grade elementary teachers from Tehran, Khuzestan, Zanjan, Kermanshah, and Yazd provinces were selected through purposive sampling. The opinions of children's book illustrators and educational psychology specialists were also used in evaluating the illustrations. Data collection was conducted through a researcher-made questionnaire, divided into teachers, educational psychology specialists, and children's book illustrators. The holistic method was used to analyze the qualitative data. The results of the study showed that although the two Persian and Kar books have innovations compared to previous books, they have technical and educational problems, and it can be said that the most problematic category or element of the book is its illustrations.
