The subject of this paper is the role of interactive didactic picture books in work with children of nursery age, and its creation. While reading to children, we influence their cognitive, social and emotional development. Since a picture book is a child's first book which helps it discover the written word media, I decided to make a picture book which will be usable by children of earliest (nursery) age. The second chapter begins by describing a developmental characteristics of children of nursery age. The third charpter briefly describes the history of picture books, some significant authors and illustrators, while the fourth chapter goes over some definitions of picture book. It also contains types, roles and functions of picture books. The fifth chapter highlights the importance of picture book's quality which helps in raising. The sixth chapter deals with the importance of the adult in reading a picture book because, other than the quality of the picture book, it's important who, when and where reads to a child. Child's teacher plays a major role in introducing the child to the book, so the role of the teacher in the activity of reading the picture book is discussed. The seventh chapter mentions the problem solving picture book which is becoming increasingly popular nowadays. Finally, the eighth chapter describes an interactive didactic picture book which influences child’s cognitive and physical development while the ninth chapter of the paper displays the process of making an interactive didactic picture book for children of nursery age. While working on the picture book I wanted to allow the children to have their first encounter with the picture book through play and exploration while developing their fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, attention, concetration and cognition. Children can experience the picture book with all their senses so I paid special attention to the aesthetic appearance, functionality and quality of the picture book.
