Illustration imagined

*For those of you who follow me on twitter, I apologize for my empty promise of a new post last week. To make up for it, I'll be posting more stuff tomorrow!

Artwork from children's book illustrators around the world will go on display alongside Columbia Elementary School forth and fifth graders' art starting Feb. 10 in Wilson Library. More than 70 artists from 30 countries illustrated original book covers for the exhibit, which challenges the idea of judging a book by its cover.

The exhibit, commissioned by the International Youth Library in Munich, Germany, is titled "An Imaginary Library: Children's Books That Do Not (Yet) Exist."

The twist: the books haven't been published yet. This is the last stop of the exhibit, and the only West Coast venue, before it returns to Germany.
