I love to read. Do You?

Yes, I love to read. I recently made these items featuring children reading.

First is "A Good Read" by artist Simon Glucklich circa 1900. Pretty shabby chic background with roses. Enjoy.


I recently made this birthday card with a pretty little girl reading with her dolls beside her. Artist Paul Beckett, circa 1911.

A tender moment. Woman reading to a little girl. Illustration by George Hardy, circa 1888. Swirly light brown floral background. Verse inside: "She reads books as one would breathe air, to fill up and live," by Annie Dillard. Change the birthday wish to whatever you like. Enjoy
