Looking toward the entrance to the new children's room.  The wooden bookshelves were cinnamon-hued and the readers' chairs were a light turquoise blue.  The same style chairs in a smaller size were salmon colored.  The linoleum tile floor was a beige color with flecks of those two colors.  The strange looking shapes jutting out of the right wall were basket-weave chairs with wrought iron legs.  In this photo they are between the bookshelves, in front of long narrow windows.
