The Children’s Museum of Manhattan at 212 West 83rd Street is presenting a special exhibit “Travels with Ted and Betsy Lewin”, that features ore than 60 illustrations from such well known children’s books as “Click, Clack Moo: Cows That Type” (with Betsy’s whimsical drawings, such as the one displayed below), “Dumpy La Rue,” “People the Lamplighter” and “What’s the Matter Habibi?” Illustrations from “Gorilla Walk” and “Elephant Quest” by the Lewin present some of the couple’s visual encounters with gorillas, elephants (see above), lions and other wild animals during African safaris. For more information on the exhibit, which runs through Nov. 17, call (212) 721-1234.
