Winter Happenings - Kids Edition!

Here in the Children's Room, we're big fans of winter! Playing in the snow, drinking hot chocolate, cozying up with a book and a blanket - there's so much to love about this season, and so many ways to celebrate it here at the JHPL.

Three book covers are displayed against a winter-themed backdrop with pine branches and lights. The center book, "A Sea View Christmas," depicts a woman in a red dress in a snowy scene. To the left is "Alchemised," featuring a dark, mysterious forest and gate. To the right is "Katabasis," showing an architectural structure. The mood is festive and intriguing.
