German-Vietnamese writer Isabelle Müller will be taking readers on another fantasy journey in her new picture book that will be published on Children’s Day (June 1).

Hundreds of new picture books on a variety of topics by Vietnamese and international authors have been introduced to increase children’s interest in reading.

An exhibition has been held in Moscow to mark the centenary of Russian illustrator Vladimir Gavrilovich Shevchenko (March 12, 1922 – 2022), who illustrated a children’s book about two Vietnamese elephants named Xung and Cung.
