Fulbright English Teaching Assistant Susanne Liaw and four of her students at the Debrecen-based Wáli István Residential College researched, edited, translated and published a booklet called “Roma Folk Tales”. Children from the Igazgyöngy Foundation for talented children provided dozens of vibrant illustrations, many of which were used on the book’s cover and to supplement each story. The exhibit will introduce the original illustrations used in the booklet and many more which could not be published in the book.
