The aim of this text is to carry out an analysis of a specific picturebook type that includes two parallel narratives and can be read in two different directions. The first book under analysis, As duas estradas (2009) [Two Roads] (text by Isabel Minhós Martins), is organised using two verbal and visual narratives which tell the story of two partially simultaneous journeys in Portugal, from Lisbon to Alcobia doTejo, in two different cars by members of the same family. The second book, Olhe, por favor, não viu uma luzinha a piscar?/Corre, coelhinho, corre! (2013)[Follow the Firefly / Run, Rabbit, Run!], is a wordless picturebook that can be read in two directions, from left to right and from right to left, depicting two different visual narratives that take place in the same scenario, with different characters and specific plots. Highlighting the hybrid, multimodal and chamaeleon-like nature of the picturebook, our objective is to provide an opportunity to reflect upon this format of contemporary literature, which is in constant development and which allows increasingly more elaborate experimentation in order to stress the ludic or playful nature of picturebooks.
