Em, a woman with dark hair, holds a neon green book with violet and black text on the cover. The book is Mỹ Documents by Kevin Nguyen. The Manchester Community Library Summer Reading Program 2025 logo is in the lower left. A graphic image of a sun coming out from behind the cloud, in the style of the Summer Reading Program graphics, is in the lower right corner. In the upper right corner, a yellow thought bubble hovers next to Em's head, and it reads "What are YOUR summer reads?"

The background features a layered, abstract design with paint textures and a red lace-like print. Bold text reads: “Gelli Plate Printing” with event dates “July 1 – July 3” and “In the YA Loft during library hours.” The Manchester Community Library Summer Reading Program 2025 logo, featuring a rainbow and the theme “Color Our World,” appears inside a yellow star at the bottom right. Art icons such as crayons, scissors, and a paint palette decorate the image. A miniature canvas stands with paints and a brush beneath it. Text in the foreground reads, "Tiny Art Show, Wednesday, July second, 3:30 to 5:00 pm". The Manchester Community Library Summer Reading 2025 logo, featuring a rainbow and the theme "Color Our World" is in the lower right corner against a teal piece of graphically rendered paper. There is a torn strip of paper diagonally across the bottom of the logo that reads "Pop Up Craft".
