Parents will want to take their kids by the Library to check out the new mural recently painted in the children’s room by noted author and illustrator Bob Shea. The mural was funded by the Friends of the Tewksbury Library. Before you go, check out the cool time-lapse video of the mural’s creation on the TPL Facebook page. And once you’re there, look for Library mascot Hardcover Turtle in the mural.
