“All I have learned, I learned from books.” - Abraham Lincoln
On the first of each month, the Walpole Town Library installs a new children's book along a designated 'StoryWalk Trail' at Distant Hill Nature Trail. The book trail consists of laminated pages of each book posted along the trail, with a fun thing for the kiddos to do as they move from page to page.
The book walk helps build children’s interest in reading while encouraging healthy outdoor activity for both adults and children.
Our 'StoryWalk Trail' tradition began in August of 2020, and we have had a new book each month since then!
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.
Distant Hill was listed as one of the Top 10 Places to Visit in New Hampshire!
