From Mickey Mouse and Bambi to Dragon Ball and Astro Boy, whatever their taste, cartoon fans are in for a treat at a Beijing expo, Wang Kaihao reports.

For fans of animation films, the National Library of China in Beijing could turn into an unexpected shrine this summer, with the opening of the Key Animation Expo.

The exhibition began on Saturday at the National Museum of Classic Books, an affiliate of the National Library of China, juxtaposing more than 400 key exhibits of animation scripts, drawings and original celluloid productions from Walt Disney Studios and works by Japan's most talented animators.
