Rey sketched from his living room window; stop at the school where Goodnight Moon author Margaret Wise Brown learned to write and at the improbable Wonderland cottage that inspired her classic Little Golden Book Mister Dog; and inspect the architectural “ghost” where modern American children’s book publishing began.

Published by minedition Post Conference Events - Continued 10:00-12:00 Monday, October 19, 2015 Literature in Stone and Bronze: Central Park in New York City Meeting point: Entrance at West 81st Street (Hunters’ Gates) Duration: 2 hours Tour Guide: Olga Bukhina, translator, writer, critic, and children’s literature specialist New York Central Park is an enormous artistic, cultural, and nature masterpiece created by the geniuses of Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux. Literature, and especially children’s literature plays an important role here, because so many of the Park’s visitors are children. We will start at the Shakespearean Theater with its statues representing The Tempest and Romeo and Juliet; we will walk through the Shakespearean Garden; we will stroll through the enchanted Rumbles which lampposts always remind me of the Narnia stories; we will pass by the Lake and the Angel of Bethesda of the Bible and of Angels in America; and will spend time by the Conservatory Water Pond where Stuart Little took part in a sailboat competition. We will see Alice in Wonderland and her friends, the White Rabbit, and the Mad Hatter, and will sit on the Park bench next to the famous storyteller Hans Christian Andersen and his Ugly Duckling. So many New York children come here every Sunday to hear a new story. We will say goodbye to the Park at the Mother Goose statue at 72nd Street and Fifth Avenue on the Museum Mile, the home of the Metropolitan Museum, the Frick Collection, and the Guggenheim Museum. This is a free event. Register at [email protected] ©Lisbeth Zwerger from ALICE IN WONDERLAND.
