[LM_NET] GEN: Museums for children's literature

[Victoria Hall <vshall3@YAHOO.COM>]

Have any of you been to The Reading Reptile, a children's bookstore in Kansas City, 
MO?
  If so, is it also like a museum for children's literature? I found photos online 
of some children's authors in that store and it almost looked like they were in a 
museum. I would love to go to their next DNA LitFest. Do you know of any museum 
type places around the country that have to do with specific authors or book 
characters? Have any of you been to the Reading Room? or Book Room? in Chicago. I 
think I saw it on Esme' Raji Codell's website. I am interested in special museums 
or unique book stores that showcase children's authors or book characters. Thanks 
in advance for the information!
