Selma AL – The saying "A picture is worth a thousand words" comes from an old Chinese proverb ... but commentator Kathryn Tucker Windham says sometimes, a picture is worth much more than that ...

... The photo of "Woman With Spinning Wheel" appears in Kathryn Tucker Windham's book "Encounters"-you can check it out at most public libraries. Mrs. Windham's weekly commentaries air every Friday morning at 7-35 on listener-supported Alabama Public Radio.
