Classic Children's Books on Film: Take Aways
SEE EVENT DETAILS
at PFA Theater
(see times)
At the heart of every children’s book is a lesson to be learned, a formative lesson about life and its many vagaries. These short films apply great animated flair to talk about such things as trust, collaboration, difference, and the unexpected. Featured artists include Frank Asch, Leo Lionni, Maurice Sendak, and Tomi Ungerer. Followed by a thirty-minute presentation by author/illustrator Christy Hale.
Christy Hale is an author, illustrator, and arts educator whose recent titles include The East-West House about the Japanese artist Noguchi, and Dreaming Up, linking children’s play to architectural design.
