Two, less nefariously, the targeted age for picture books is not generally considered to be invested in a series-long arc. One, capitalism: it’s efficient to sell what’s already sold well in a slightly different package. The reasons for this are likely three-fold. The most common type of sequel for picture books, though, are the simple “further adventure” texts which feature a popular character or character sans series-arc, as in Angelina Ballerina or Maisy. A more abstract version of this is the continuation of an arc external to the world of the individual texts included in the series, as in Sendak’s trilogy.
The most common use of the term is for those texts which serve as building blocks in a larger narrative arc featuring the same world and/or protagonist, as in Harry Potter. Seuss’s The Cat in the Hat Comes Back is a strange kind of sequel.
