Jewish Children's Literature in Russian and Yiddish

On June 22nd YIVO presented a Zoom webinar in collaboration with The Bodleian Library of Oxford to discuss Yiddish, Russian, and Hebrew children's literature, and to showcase some of the handsomely illustrated books in our respective collections. The event featured presentations by Miriam Udel (Emory), Catriona Kelly (Oxford), César Merchan-Hamann (Hebraica and Judaica Curator, Bodleian Library) and Stefanie Halpern (Director of the YIVO Archives). These seven books were among the dozen books featured in Stefanie Halpern's presentation.
