Illustrations that bring your favorite children’s books to life with over 140 original works. Explore the history of children’s books from the turn-of-the-century pen-and-ink Mother Goose art of Sarah Noble Ives, to the most popular works of today including the digital creations of Mo Willems. This exhibition features the original art of Dr. Seuss, Richard Scarry, Rosemary Wells, Hilary Knight, Maurice Sendak’s Where the Wild Things Are and Garth Williams’ Stuart Little. Revisit classic illustrations of fondly remembered characters including Dick and Jane, Eloise, Madeline, The Cat in the Hat, and Babar.
The exhibition was curated and organized by Lee Cohen and Lois Sarkisian, co-founders of Every Picture Tells A Story, in association with Landau Traveling Exhibitions.
