| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立屏東教育大學 === 幼兒教育學系碩士班 === 101 === This paper focuses on children’s comprehension of humorous picture books by observing the responses after reading four selected humorous picture books. The responses were first classified into characters, plots, and pictures, then, analyzed with humorous elements (repetitions, implications, imaginations, embarrassments and conflicts). Based on my college study in the same topic, this paper makes some improvements. On the research target, the main target is changed from some active children to random. Moreover, this paper is concerned in both literary and graphic parts.
The participants were students from one kindergarten in Pingtung. The story Not Now, Bernard was told to the students. After getting the general idea about the personality of every child, with more reactions to the story, from their teachers, six of them went on the experiment.
The follow experiment added with three more stories: 我變成一隻噴火龍了！, Gorilla and わにさんどきっ はいしゃさんどきっ. While, when the story was telling in a group, the responses of children were affected easily. Besides, the experiment spent quite a long time in collecting and classifying the information. Furthermore, children showed no interests in listening to the same story again. The result shows:
1. When stories telling in group, the children react more actively. Affected by others, the responses show highly similarity.
2. Children show less reaction in the literary part than the graphic part. They interpret the stories with their experiences.
3. The reactions are highly associated to children’s daily life.
