摘要：This paper aims to analyze how the graphic aspects of books allow shifts that expand the possibilities of reading, discussing how they interfere with the reception of the work. We deal with the hypothesis that the graphic elements translated as layout (illustrations, lines, empty and occupied spaces, colors, letters and capital and lower case diversification, as well as thickness) expand the potential of writing and tend to multiply senses, print dynamics, interactivity, multilinearity to the text and offer the reader a variety of reading routes. This research is a literature review of qualitative approach. Regarding the methodological procedures, a study of the graphic aspects was set according to Gomes Filho (2004), Araújo (2011), Camargo (2009), Ramos and Nunes (2013). The discussions concerning displacements are based upon Barthes’s studies (2007). As a result, we indicate that the two books analyzed Os lobos dentro das paredes ( Wolves within the walls ), by Neil Gaimanand, O menino que vendia palavras ( The boy who sold words ), by Ignácio de Loyola Brandão, promote a dialogue between the verbal text and the various elements that compose the layout, assisting in the enhancement of the book as an art object. Through the graphic innovations, the set of elements used generates vibrant poetic innovations that mark a revolution in the conception of children's book and a mutation in reading.
