Library
Captured in the collection of a Westover Branch Library patron, the ABC's of dozens of countries are featured during this month of back to school.
This display features just a few of more than 80 alphabet books, collected from many countries around the world, over a span of 25 years. The illustrations range from simple pen-and-ink drawings to lavish watercolors, from the comical to the serene.
Many thanks to our enthusiastic Westover Fan for sharing her collection.
