Our new StoryWalk® features the sweet and thoughtful picture book, Strictly No Elephants by Lisa Mantchev and illustrated by Taeeun Yoo.  “With a gentle message of inclusion and helping others, this title reaches beyond a mere friendship story.” –School Library Journal

You are invited to walk around the library building and enjoy this beloved picture book on the following dates (weather permitting, of course–precipitation and winds of 13+ mph can be a challenge):

StoryWalk® is an innovative and delightful way for children—and adults!—to enjoy reading and the outdoors at the same time. Laminated pages from a children’s book are installed along an outdoor path. As you stroll along the walkway, you’re directed to the next page in the story.

StoryWalk® was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, VT and was developed with the help of Rachel Senechal, Kellogg-Hubbard Library.

Our recent StoryWalk® programs are supported in part by a grant from the Malden Cultural Council, a local agency supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.
