The bronze statue of a little girl will soon get its book back. Camas resident Randy Curtis has been working with the city and downtown leaders so that a book similar to one it had in its hands when first installed in 2002 could finally be replaced.

Bronze statue will finally get its book back

A little girl whose book was stolen years ago will soon have a replacement in her hands. This "little girl" is actually the well-known bronze statue that sits on one of the benches that surround the fountain located at Northeast Fourth Avenue and Cedar Street in downtown Camas. When it was first installed in June 2002, the girl was holding a book, also made of bronze. Just a few weeks later, the book was damaged and then repaired. It was later stolen again and never replaced. That is, until now.
