This research was motivated by developing picture story learning media to increase reading interest for class III students at SDN Pilang 1, in learning the Sub-theme of Development of Food Production Technology. The problem students found when researchers conducted observations was that most of the collection of reading books as a learning resource still only contained reading texts, with a lack of pictures containing the content of the reading. This causes students' interest in reading to decrease because books do not contain pictures and material that supports the reading content.

The aim of this research is to make class III students at SDN Pilang 1 interested in reading. Research and Development (R&D) is the method that will be used in this research.
