Enjoy a storybook on a nature walk at Cool Spring Preserve!

PVAS Host: Susannah Olsen

Free and open to the public. All ages are welcome, though youth must be accompanied by an adult. Registration is not required

A StoryWalk® is a great way for people of all ages to enjoy reading while spending time outdoors! Pages from a storybook will be attached to signs placed along a trail so people can gradually read the story as they walk the trail. This StoryWalk® will be spread over a trail length of no more than 1/4 mile.

The story at Cool Spring Preserve is The Cloud Spinner, written by Michael Catchpool and illustrated by Alison Jay.
