A Tangram wilderness scene compiled of cut-out colorful felt in the Children’s area provides hours of puzzle play with multiple combinations of the seven geometric shapes. Other puzzles like the rebus “Comb + Ewe + Knit + Tea” is displayed in the Community room shared between the Library and Apartment Housing next door.
