The Picture Book is an illustrated book made for children. It is filed with Literature and lifts the mood as well as any novel.
Paging through it cuts boredom by a good margin. It also eases stress and unhappiness. Its relief matches a Paperback at the same light weight. That makes it just as good a pick for a survivor with time to kill.
Picture Books come from book stores, daycares and kids' bedrooms.
Reading
A Picture Book counts as a picture book. It always spawns with the single subject Childs Picture Special. The mood relief is the same as a Paperback or a Photo Book. Boredom falls the most, while stress and unhappiness ease by a smaller, equal amount.
The Photo Book gives the same relief but weighs twice as much. That makes the Picture Book the lighter choice to carry on a trip.
Locations
Book store shelves are the best bet, holding one nearly one time in four. Daycare shelves and metal shelves come next. Daycare desks and counters hold them less often. Kids' bedrooms and adult bedrooms turn them up now and then on side tables, shelves, dressers and in wardrobes. Living room shelves, motel rooms and survivor safehouse shelves hold one only rarely.
The places where it spawns, with the rough chance per container. Each tab shows one kind of place.
