Read Any Good Boots Lately? - Olathe, Kansas

Another in the series of Boot Sculptures for the celebration of the 150^th birthday of Olathe, Kansas.

Read Any Good Boots Lately? is a boot sculpture standing six foot tall and designed by Chris and Sue Langseth. The design is in recognition of the Ladies Reading Circle which was started in 1883 and helped the Olathe Public Library get established. In fact the location of the boot sculpture is in front of the Olathe Public Library on the east side of downtown Olathe. The books on the boot are featured books about Kansas or are Kansas authors.

For those of you who haven't read any of my prior posts on the boot sculptures, I will just note that there are twelve of these six foot sculptures displayed throughout Olathe in celebrating Olathe's 150^th Birthday.
