Why is the pictures important in this book?

 In Persepolis, there are lots of pictures in the books, and it is like a caricature,but it is not. The pictures are very important in this book. On page47, the political prisoners were liberated a few days later, there are about 3000 people in there. In this picture, we can see 2 parts of people are embrace, a part of people are men, other part of people are children and women. They missed each other, and they are very excited. On page 64, Marjain is very sad to say good bye to her family. She cried in her mom's hug. In this picture, I know she don't want to  leave her family, but she can't choose. So, I think pictures are very important in this book.

poem

Sunsets, sunrise
Life starts, life pass
Nobody can start, nobody can stop
The start of life and the end of life.
Same place and same time
We are here and you were here.
Time pass, life ends
Born on a bed, leave on a bed
Nothing can bring noting can carry
It is life, the order of nature

Another day come, another life creates
A new girl and a new sound
The start of life on a same bed
The end of life on a same time
Another life, another beginning
Things change and year pass

Sunshine glows, night mares gone
we stand and fight and daylights come
never waste a single day
and never give up on anything
This is our lives
