Walking through the entry hall of this local library in São Paulo, most people don’t take notice of the permanent exhibition of vintage marionettes housed in glass cabinets along an unassuming side corridor.
The Biblioteca Infantojuvenil Monteiro Lobato (Monteiro Lobato Children and Youth Library) is the oldest of a number of public libraries targeted toward children and teenagers. It is known for organizing various community activities, which at one time included puppet shows.
