July's Bookish Art...

 
Winslow Homer -- Girl Reading 

"In each book was a possibility of joy:  a magical place to visit, 
a hero or heroine to meet, or a new friend to make."
--Janis Wildy, The English Bookshop

    1. I was like that, too! I loved the magic of books as a kid, and how they transported me to so many wonderful times and places. I still do. :)
