A Missing Portrait Of Mary? By Jessica Carey-Bunning tudortreasures.net/a-missing-po... #Tudors

So I'm from Virginia. I currently live in TN and I also lived here as a teen. It's a little complicated. Anyway, the Rutherford County PUBLIC library is where I spent a lot of time as a tween/teen. It shaped me. It saved me. This is a PUBLIC LIBRARY not even a school. And I'm proud of *Luanne.

“Libraries are one of the best creations in all human history”—my daughter just now but also anyone who reads.

Happy #WorldBookDay! 📚 Remember to have a book at hand, always! The format doesn't matter. Reading can expand your horizon and send you on journeys, it relaxes you and involves you emotionally, and it can educate you. What are you reading today?📖 #readers #writers #booksky
