Summary: | This study investigated the effectiveness of illustrations on the students' reading comprehension and the students' attitude toward the use of illustrations in their reading comprehension. The aim is to determine whether or not illustrations affect the students' reading comprehension and their attitude. This study involved one experimental group and one control group as participants.

In the control group, the scores of pre-test and post-test were similar, there was no significant difference after post-test, in other words, the improvement between pre-test and post-test was low. In the experimental group, the scores of pre-test and post-test were not similar, there was a significant difference after post-test, in other words, the improvement between pre-test and post-test was higher than the improvement in the control group.
