Points to the person who can identify the children's book this sculpture commemorates. Double points if you can identify the location of the shot. This represents the very first book I read on my own. I took the shot when we were on the verge of trying to get pregnant and trying to figure out where in the country we were going to live ~ pretty appropriate to this story! There's a lot of emotion wrapped up in this image for me!
What is a childhood book that holds significance for you, and why?
Is it "Make Way For Ducklings"? I don't know where the picture was taken, though.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book was "Puff the Blue Kitten" - an old Golden Book at my grandparents' farm house. I loved the story and the illustrations, and I still love to remember reading with my grandparents.
points Maria! you are correct. This is a statue dedicated to Make Way for Ducklings by Robert McCloskey. I've never heard of Puff the Blue Kitten - but what a sweet memory!
ReplyDeleteAnybody know where the statue is?
It is in Boston's "Public Garden"
