Reading is Fundemental



Meet the Illustrators
In honor of its 40th anniversary, RIF invited 40 beloved children's book illustrators to take part in a book called The Art of Reading. Each of these celebrated artists re-imagined a classic book from their childhood. The result is a beautiful collection of images and essays that remind us of the magic of children's books.
