In Canton, along Washington Street, is this sculpture of two children reading together.

The Canton Public Library is located near the southwest corner of the intersection of Washington Street and Sherman Street.

The statue is located near the driveway to the library, in front of the library and south of the sign for the library.

The statue is a bronze sculpture of two children reading a book together. The boy is holding the book, while the girl looks on. Both are sitting on a rough bench. The book has designs on the pages but does not have any readable text.

I'm not sure who the artist is or the founder. I did find an almost identical picture of the sculpture from a retailer, link below. If this is the source, then the statue is titled, "Read to Me."
