Say What? How We Communicate

Say What? How We Communicate by Charlotte Molas and Radka Piko (Albatross Books) HB RRP $29.99 ISBN 9788000070919

This picture book is for older readers, 7+ years old as it is thousands of words long and about how people communicate. Every page is made up of sections that contain headings, text, and illustrations. For instance, on the first page, under the heading What is Communication? it shows how we communicate (through speech, facial expressions, posture, gestures, and touch, as well as through symbols and writing). There are also things to consider when we’re in contact with others (staying safe when communicating, useful things to know, and communication tips) as well as communication with the aid of technology.

The following pages come under the headings such as How We Learn to Communicate, Speech, How We Understand One Another, Famous Speakers, Posture, Facial Expressions, and much more. 

This is a comprehensive book that makes much use of cartoonish illustrations, speech balloons and different typefaces. It certainly covers all aspects of communication.
