Through the cooperation of the Town of Sweden, the Recreation Department, Monroe County Legislator Jackie Smith, and the Seymour Public Library, families were able to participate in a Story Walk throughout the month of October on the trail at Sweden Town Park.
During this Story Walk, families walked the trail while reading the picture book Little Boo by Stephen Wunderli and illustrated by Tim Zeltner. This charming book about a little pumpkin seed who wanted to scare people was the perfect fall companion for this walk. Families also explored the world around them by completing a series of side quests. The combination of completing these side quests and reading the book provided a wonderful way for families to enjoy books and nature together.
If you would like to see the Story Walk become a permanent fixture in our community, reach out to Seymour Public Library Director Patrick Pittman at http://patrick.pittman@libraryweb.org.
