Enjoy a Book and a Walk with a StoryWalk®
StoryWalks® are a fun and educational resource for children and adults to enjoy reading, exercise, and the outdoors all at once. Pages from a children’s picture book are displayed on special signs along a path in a park, garden, or another outdoor setting. As you walk along the path, you can read the pages of the story.
The library has installed StoryWalks in two locations. Stories are updated every few months. Current stories are:
H.J. Carroll Park in Chimacum
Flat Cat by Tara Lazar (Washington State Award Winner: 2025)
The Red Jacket by Bob Holt
Brinnon Elementary School
A Perfect Day by Lane Smith
Look by Gabi Snyder
The StoryWalk® concept was created in 2007 by Anne Ferguson in Montpelier, Vermont. Ann sought ways to promote physical activity, early learning, and family time together in nature. It has been developed with the help of Rachel Senechal. StoryWalk’s combination of learning, entertainment, and exercise is a hit in all 50 U.S. states and 12 countries.
