\"PhotographMuch like the city of Paris itself, children\u2019s books inspire the imagination in all of us.<\/strong> For generations, children\u2019s literature has sparked young minds through clever twists of prose and illustration. The French are no strangers to artistic expression and have had quite the influence on popular children\u2019s literature, from the stories of Babar to the pages of the Petit Prince. Bibliophiles young and old will have the opportunity to relive the stories of their youth or discover something fresh at the French national library\u2019s Babar, Harry Potter and Company exhibition<\/strong>, running until April 11. As usual, New York Habitat has plenty of Paris apartments<\/a> (some with home libraries!) available before, during and after the exhibition takes place.<\/p>\n

Books from our childhood are much more than just books, they open to the door to wonderment, and are the first fruitful steps in the path towards literacy. Most of us have fond memories of our favorite children\u2019s book or have enjoyed the whimsy of books like Harry Potter in our adulthood. Anchoring Paris\u2019 thriving Bercy district<\/a>, the Fran\u00e7ois Mitterrand French National Library is holding an exhibit celebrating fairy tales, picture books, adventure stories and young novels from around the world.<\/strong> The exhibit seamlessly follows the different periods of childhood and the literature that influences reader development, from the very first words read by a loving parent to the teenage years of self discovery. The exhibit will feature artifacts from generations past as well as avant-garde contemporary works. Other pieces presented include manuscripts and original drawings, promotional posters and mixed-media presentations.<\/p>\n
