We took a nice stroll at Jaycee Park this morning for our first in-person Storywalk®. Be sure to stop by and read this month’s book. It will be there all of June!

Thanks Kayson’s Candy Company for sponsoring the Storywalk® in honor of National Candy Month!

This project is made possible by a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (Grant #LS-252486-OLS-22) to the Texas State Library and Archives Commission under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act. (2023)

The Storywalk® Project was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, VT and developed in collaboration with the Kellogg-Hubbard Library. Storywalk® is a registered service mark owned by Ms. Ferguson.
