Pop-Up Storybook Walk
May 1-29
The May pop-up features the book A Day for Rememberin' by Leah Henderson. It can be found at the Soldiers Memorial Court of Honor.
The library’s “pop-up” storybook walk is a portable set of signs that we install around the city, in partnership with a community organization. We typically install our temporary storybook walks for three-week periods. If you are interested in hosting a temporary storybook walk in your community, please fill out this form.
June 5-30
The June pop-up features the book Summer Color! by Diana Murray. It can be found at Francis Park, along the path running from Donovan Ave. toward the playground.
The StoryWalk® Project was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, Vermont and developed in collaboration with the Kellogg-Hubbard Library.
