ALT Two people stand side by side holding decorative tree-shaped displays made of colorful book icons. One person wears a dark blue textured sweater, and the other wears a white button-down shirt. The trees feature bright blue, green, yellow, orange, red, and purple books arranged as leaves on black backgrounds. The backdrop is dark with large, softly blurred versions of the same colourful book-tree design
