Among scholars of children's literature, multiculturalism has only just begun to generate serious studies involving the representations of various cultures in children's books and what impact those portrayals appear to have on child readers. Most of these analyses have been based on the literary representations of individual ethnic groups in the U.S.A. Art bears a complex relation to cultural representation in picture books and the relation between the two is scarcely examined in the review of children's literature. In this study the illustrations of picture books about India are discussed to help us understand the ways in which a picture book may be judged to be an acceptable representation of the culture or cultures it represents. In order to deal specifically with the ways in which a picture book is considered as a vehicle for cross cultural communication, the picture book was the starting point for the study and the basic referent to which it returned. Picture books are described in chapter two for their characteristics in illustration and book design, and for their meanings to art and culture. I also focus on the art and cultural connection in picture book illustration and discuss the nature of culture and the meanings of its representation in picture books. Chapter three looks at the representation of India in picture books through character, theme and point of view. The final chapter examines the role picture books play in global education. This research has sought to identify the ways in which the cultures of a nation may be represented in the illustrations of a picture book, making this study an important complement to discourse on children's literature and the interdependence of picture book illustrations to cultural education, specifically the application for long term effects on international understanding an cultural tolerance. This research aids in developing better strategies for artistic license not only for picture books about India, but for other countries and cultures.
