Children’s books are one of life’s great joys, and this event sets out to celebrate them!
Join us to discover:
- Pictured Worlds by Leonard S. Marcus. This definitive collection celebrates the global cultural phenomenon of children’s books and their illustrations! Over 400 illustrations showcase beloved and landmark books from Great Britain, the United States, France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Sweden, the Czech Republic, Russia, Japan, China, Korea, Bulgaria, Argentina, Cameroon, and more!
- Believe in the World: Wisdom for Grownups from Children’s Books by Any Gash and Elise Howard. Everything we need to know as adults can be found in the brilliant, imaginative, diverse world of children’s books. This witty collection reminds us not to lose sight of the values we learned as kids — to be courageous, to do good deeds, to respect our imaginations, and maybe even to break a few rules every once in a while!
