Cartoonish picture of a yellow umbrella and a yellow and red striped beach chair on the sand, under the sun. A pair of pink flip flops is below the chair, a pink pail lies a little further up the sand. Text across the blue sky reads: Beach READS. There is a black tree growing out of a book in the lower left corner, and the text: Est. 1892. It is the Lynnfield Public LIbrary logo.
