This study focuses on the internal mechanism and practical paths of digital personalized picture books promoting young children’s sharing behavior. Findings show that deep personalization(name + image + scene) is significantly better than nominal personalization, which only replaces names; role identification serves as the core mediator connecting personalized reading and actual sharing behavior; AR interaction, repeated reading, and adult guidance can strengthen the effect of behavior transfer. Accordingly, this paper constructs a complete implementation path of “three-dimensional personalized design–multimodal interactive reading–layered adult guidance–situated behavior transfer,” providing a theoretical basis and operable solutions for kindergartens and families to use digital personalized picture books to improve young children’s sharing behavior.
