One of the things I love to do is take people to the New York Public Library. It is free. It is so New York City.
The Lions guarding the front originally named Leo Lenox and Leo Aster, the first contributors..
During the Great Depression the lions names changed to Patients and Fortitude.
I was working with a French family, and I asked, “do you know the story ‘Winnie The Pooh?’
We were standing next to the Ladies Room on the first floor, besides the children’s sections in the library, when the young lady from France said, ‘No thank you.’
That is when I learned that Pooh means the same thing in France as in America..
I took this young lady by the hand and dragged her into the children’s section to see that Eeyore looked like he had the mange with so many patches, Piglet is literally 3 inches tall, Kanga has a broken neck, no Roo.. Tigger is there too.
I was lost in translation..
One Token Tours will take you by the hand and find secrets and symbols in plain site.
