THE ART OF ENCHANTMENT: CHILDREN'S BOOK ILLUSTRATORS
October 7, 1997 - January 11, 1998
In every language throughout the world, stories are the foundation of all thought and communication. By telling each other stories, we discover ourselves and find meaning in our world - particularly as children, when our acquaintance with literature begins.
