Painted Books
















Text along the bottom of the page reads: "THIS BOOK AND THIS BOOK MURAL ARE DEDICATED TO KATE KENALEY PAINTED WITH LOVE HAWLEY HUSSEY JULY 2001"

The mural meanders around windows and the doorway on the outside walls of Dog-Eared Books on Valencia @ 20th in San Francisco – one of the best used book stores in town, especially for the finding of bargains.

My favorite spine is the quotation from Madeline by Ludwig Bemelmans. I must have read that book to my daughter at least 500 times.
