There is a need for awareness raising activities from the preschool period about individuals with special needs. Children’s literature offers opportunities to enrich and deepen these studies. Examining the picture storybooks in the preschool period will be useful in increasing the awareness of children regarding individuals with special needs. Method: In this study, preschool picture storybooks published since 2000 about individuals with special needs were analyzed using content analysis. A total of 20 books were included. In this study that was carried out using assessment scales included in the international liteature, the personal characteristics, character traits, character depictions, character development, and information about the point of view of the story, as well as the relationships between characters with and without special needs were examined. Findings: Eight different special need conditions were identified in the 20 picture storybooks. Of the 20 books that were examined, physical disability in six studies, hearing impairment in four studies, intellectual disability in three studies, dyslexia in two studies, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder in two studies, visual impairment in one study, autism in one study, and speech disorder in one study were the subject. Discussion: While the variety of these conditions were similar to previous studies, the results regarding character development and relationships between characters differed. This study identified picture storybooks that could raise awareness towards individuals with special needs and provided recommendations for reading programs.
