TEHRAN – A selection of 200 Iranian children’s books are on display in an exhibition entitled “The Land of Poetry and Legends” at Japan’s National Diet Library in Tokyo.

The exhibition also includes the two side sections “Children’s Books in Iran” and “Authors and Illustrators”. Some of the books have been translated into Japanese.

The showcase, which will continue until July 21, has been organized to celebrate 90 years of diplomatic relations between Iran and Japan.

The occasion was also marked earlier in February in Tehran by organizing a festival of Japanese films.
