Abstract
Based on the posthuman new materialism, we would like to examine the characteristics of Baek Hee-na or picture books and the entanglement between humans and more-than-human’ world. After selecting four picture books: “Strange Mom,” “A Strange Guest ,” “Magic Candies” and “I'm a Dog,”, diffraction analysis was conducted. Baek Hee-na picture books have the characteristics of polystyled entanglement of text-picture texts, the lively and related material (world) system, and various emotions in daily life. Next, Baek Hee-na's picture books were intertwined with post-human new materialism, first with 'acting background: assemblage relationship among all', second with 'cross-existence breaking boundaries: strange hybrid', and third with 'response to non-human beings: ability: relationship and ethics of care'. The discourse on posthuman new materialism became materialized with the world of picture books. This paper’s proposition may broaden the academy to discuss the theoretical picture books foundations and directions of early childhood education in the posthuman era.
