Over the course of the past year, artist Charlotte Puttock has been quietly working on a mural in the Children's room. Her inspiration came from Vivaldi's Four Seasons.

Stop in and take a look at how the seasons transition in this lovely piece. The artwork encourages children to be curious about nature and to find a quiet space to read. Donations in honor of the founder of First Books for Babies, Charlotte Porter, helped to fund this project.

Thank you Charlotte for sharing your time and talent with the library!
