Extended data

Some people use the word "picture book" to distinguish some picture books, most of which are specially drawn by independent painters, with obvious personal style, mainly based on the picture itself. We often see some illustrated books. Although the pictures in these books are very interesting, they are only a supplement to the text, and they are just pictures with the function of the text system. This kind of books is more common in textbooks and supplementary books. The pictures in the book do not have the function of "picture language".
