Story Walk<br />

Walking Storytime<br />

A Story Walk is a series of signs along a short<br />

trail in a park or open space. Each sign contains<br />

a consecutive page of a picture book, so you can<br />

read or enjoy the book by moving from one sign<br />

to the next at your own pace. It's a great way to<br />

enjoy books and fresh air at the same time! We'll<br />

be celebrating a book by an Indigenous author<br />

for Indigenous Literacy Day on 6 September.<br />

The Story Walk will also run during during the<br />

Whitehorse Heritage Festival, so get out into<br />

nature and enjoy this beautiful story!<br />
