【Abstract】In this study, 35 infants in the intermediate class(1) of one kindergarten in Changshu were tested, with the usage of observation and interview as two main research methods, to study the status of picture books reading of the children within this specific age range. The investigations were conducted from two principle perspectives which were the gender differences and the main reading subjects in varied reading forms. Results indicated that there was a significant difference in the readings of picture book between two different genders. It was also found that child individually has its own reading habits. Additionally, the creation of a appropriate reading atmosphere by preschool teachers is very important to picture readings of children.
