Bayport-Blue Point Library's Creative Take on Juxaposition

Tall man, big book. Petite woman, petite tale.

In surfing Facebook Patch came across a unique and creative photo taken by the Bayport-Blue Point Library that literally defines juxapositon.

In the photo the library's  tallest librarian, Steve, who stands at at 6'9", is shown holding the library's biggest book -- a children's story book, and Wendy, one of the most petite librarians at 5'1", stands holding the library's smallest book -- a Kelley Blue Book.

"We were inspired by the University of Iowa Library posting a picture of their smallest book, which is about the size of a ladybug!," notes the library on its Facebook page.  Read more about Iowa's creative photo here.
