Ever since Yanagida (2006) proposed that ``not only children but also adults should read picture books、'' the activity of adults reading picture books has been expanding. Picture book therapy is one of these activities. The purpose of this study was to examine participants' subjective experiences based on a qualitative analysis of their "impressions" of participating in picture book therapy. Picture book therapy was conducted once a month. Each session of picture book therapy had a different theme、 such as "Know Yourself" or "Feel Happiness. It consisted of five picture books facilitated by the same reader. Participation was not mandatory、and participants could attend whenever they wanted. The subjective experiences of the participants in the picture book therapy were as follows. Prior to their participation、 participants held the stereotype that "picture books are for children to read" and also had doubts about the effectiveness of the picture book therapy. However、after their participation、 the participants were able to receive various messages from picture books、 which helped them to stabilize their feelings and become aware of their inner world. In addition、 the participants showed behavioral changes、 such as showing compassion and interest in their surroundings and reading picture books in their daily lives.
