Abstract: Picture books are vital to promoting early literacy in pre-school children. The development of digital technology has made electronic picture books another important form of early reading, which have demonstrated advantages in stimulating reading interest, promoting vocabulary learning and story retelling. The study used the Tobii X3 120 eye-tracker to record the eye movements of 46 pre-school children ranging in age from 4 to 5 during reading electronic picture books with dynamic and static texts, and to test their reading experience, vocabulary learning and story retelling. The results showed that: (1) the Dynamic could more significantly increase reading motivation than the Static; (2) No significant differences in the effects of the Dynamic and Static on vocabulary learning; (3) the Dynamic was more conducive to story retelling than the Static; (4) the Dynamic could significantly increase the frequency and probability of time on print fixation, and decreased those on illustration fixation.

Key words: children, electronic picture books, dynamic text, static text, eye movement
