This! Except that it's not currently on exhibit at the Fortsas Club in Paris. It's at the Grolier Club in New York City. (which is notoriously easier to gain access to than the Fortas, by the way!)

The Grolier exhibit is reviewed in the NY Times Dec. 5, 2024, Section C, Page 4 with the headline: Some What-If Books Are Brought to Life.
I only hope it includes a copy of "The Shadow of the Wind" by Julian Carax.
Looking for a fun holiday experience? Check out the current exhibit at the American Swedish Institute in Minneapolis: "Tomte: the Gnome, the Myth, the Legend."
Hubby and I visited last weekend and had a blast. Check out some of the photos I took in my blog post:

I went to the Chuhuly Gardens and Glass in Seattle for the first time. I really enjoyed looking around at the exhibits. I will probably go back in the future.

FInal post: 5/n of a visit to the Shanghai Natural Wild Insect Kingdom on 23 June 2024. A Pig-Nosed Turtle (Carettochelys insculpta), Common Snapping Turtle (Chelydra serpentina), Alligator Snapping Turtle (Macrochelys temminckii) and Mata Mata (Chelus fimbriata).
Post 4/n of a visit to the Shanghai Natural Wild Insect Kingdom on 23 June 2024. A Panther Chameleon (Furcifer pardalis), Tiger Salamander (Ambystoma tigrinum) and two Axolotls (Ambystoma mexicanum), a wild and leucistic form. The leucistic (white) form is the one usually found in captivity, which is why most people think the Axolotl looks like that.
Post 3/n of a visit to the Shanghai Natural Wild Insect Kingdom on 23 June 2024. Here are a Northern Caiman Lizard (Dracaena guianensis), Yellow Tree Monitor (Varanus reisingeri), Eyelash Gecko (Correlophus ciliatus) and Gargoyle Gecko (Rhacodactylus auriculatus).
Post 2/n of a visit to the Shanghai Natural Wild Insect Kingdom on 23 June 2024. A Chinese Water Dragon (Physignathus cocincinus), Mangrove Monitor (Varanus indicus), Argentine Black and White Tegu (Salvator merianae) and a lovely Philippine Sailfin Dragon (Hydrosaurus pustulatus).
