In a quiet, shaded area of the library grounds, you will find this statue of two little girls sitting on a bench, reading. There is ample space to their right for you to sit down and interact with them.

My sister was along with me on my Waymarking adventure that day and, as a former teacher, made a cameo appearance helping the youngsters read their books!!!

"Gary Alsum has been a member of the Colorado-based National Sculptors’ Guild since 1992. His sculpture, Picture Books, depicts two young children reading books with their dog."
