3.0de Grummond Children's Literature Museum(2 reviews) - One-of-a-kind and Original Spent < 1 hour Speciality Museums • Children's Museums This museum is nestled on the campus of the University of Southern Mississippi but is a true hidden gem. It includes the original illustrations of the famous Curious George books and has grown into a collection of thousands of originals of children's books collections. While the public can't view the entire collection, there is a museum that constantly rotates what's on display. So cool that you can view something in Hattiesburg that literally can't be found anywhere else I the world.See more..
