| dcterms.description | An illustration (photo, drawing, cartoon, etc.) always gets noticed by the reader first, before the words. A picture can inspire or trigger off a dream, and is at least as powerful as a text. A photograph is not an ornament; it can bring home a message. It provides a second level of information to the text, which it also makes more attractive by creating more space, something most readers find inviting.
A diagram, or a sketch, especially when clear and simple, is a good way to explain how something works. It is often used in 'how to' guides.
A table can help the reader absorb information through a graphic visualisation of, for example, statistics (through graphs and charts).
The use of cartoons is growing in extension work, reminding us how much they help in getting a message across. A great help here, if you are not a gifted artist yourself, is to use or copy the extensive set of drawings of people, objects and animals in Where there is no artist, available from the publisher.
