本文考量「圖像轉向」，期盼理解「圖像敘述者」如何召喚讀者交流之美感傳播歷程。無字繪本僅以圖像呈現而缺文字闡明情節，或為圖像敘事代表。本文以強調視覺導向之國際大獎作品為例，剖析無字繪本藝術創作端召喚讀者參與之敘事策略。
敘述者依循對預設讀者之想像而構築敘事策略，據此安排視覺元素、表現客體、指涉系統及圖式化等召喚式結構層次作為引發讀者想像力機制之策略。藝術創作端考量預設讀者之審美發展並留補白空間，鼓勵親師共讀以助兒童克服不確定感。

In this study, we analyzed the response of audiences regarding wordlesspicture books from the perspective of aesthetic communication. Thecommunication process was assessed according to the appealing structure andthe interpretation process of young children.
For describing an inviting structure, a narrator can use image syntax andsequence to balance the consistency and continuity of involved images. Thereferential system, or the context that readers associate with the roles ofchildren’s literature, increases their enjoyment and appreciation of picturebooks. When viewing pictures, readers can switch between frames and pagesto interpret the causal relationships that form the story.
Because wordless picture books have no anchor text or specific answers,they provide young readers with room to imagine. Children must recreate thestory every time they read a picture book, which enables young readers and authors to coconstruct pictorial narratives and share aesthetic experiences.
