Abstract

Objective: to validate a booklet on dengue prevention in order to make it an educational technology to be used with the population.

The illustrations were redone, adding clarity, expressiveness, movement, interaction and contextualization.

Conclusion: the booklet is valid to be used for the population, with the purpose of informing, in a playful way, the forms of prevention and combat to mosquito transmitting dengue.
