November marks the 80th anniversary celebration of the American publication of the classic Babar children's book.
I loved these books when I was a kid. Weasley and I stopped to check out the window display at Books of Wonder in Manhattan that celebrated the King of Elephants.
Happy Birthday to Babar

Happy Birthday to Babar! I loved those books when I was a kid too.
ReplyDeleteBabar was my first real book that I "got" and therefore enjoyed immensely! I think I was probably in line for the first edition (at least it seems I'm that old!). I also enjoyed reading Babar to Christy (Payton's Mom) when she'd let me.
