"Words and Wonder: Rediscovering Children’s Literature" is an interdisciplinary exhibition examining the history, artistry, and impact of children’s literature. The exhibition celebrates the creation and lasting impact of children’s storytelling through a range of mediums.

"Words and Wonder" explores the storytelling process through two distinctive lenses: the perspectives of children as readers, writers, and performers, and the contributions of early 20th-century illustrators and artists who envisioned fantastical worlds for young audiences. The exhibition explores early modern education and literacy practices, featuring rare 17th-century hornbooks and marginalia that reveal how children interacted with the texts.

The exhibition will remain on display through August 18.
