I'm very sorry--I hit that mysterious key that sends a message off before it should go. I'll continue with the Third Day.



Third day, June 14, 2009

First session: Art and imagination in chidlren's books
       Illustrating war: comparing an Egyptian and a Lebanese book
       Imagination in Lebanese children's illustration
      Impact of color in illustrated books

Second session: Artistic structure
       Collage in children's drawings in Iran
       The Birth of Snakedog (European speaker)
       U.S. literature for young people about the Arab world (Elsa Marston)

Round Table: Associations promoting children's literature


[The conference will probably be largely in Arabic, with English and French mixed in liberally. I don't know whether they'll use instant translation--probably not. Let me know if you'd like any follow-up.]
