COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) – After being rained out on September 8, the unveiling of the new Story Walk that has been installed by the Branch District Library is now scheduled to take place this Friday morning, September 22, at 10:00 a.m. in Coldwater’s Heritage Park.
The Story Walk includes 18 picture book display signs along the walking path between the Browne Recreation Center and Borden Field.
Library Children’s Services Coordinator Erica Donihue told the City Council in May that the permanent Story Walk would allow the library to share children’s literature that is written in many of the languages known in Coldwater.
Parking for Friday’s free event is available at the Coldwater Recreation Center.
The first book selected is “We Laugh Alike / Juntos nos reímos: A Story That’s Part Spanish, Part English, and a Whole Lot of Fun” by Carmen T. Bernier-Grand with illustrations by Alyssa Bermudez.
The StoryWalk Project was created by Anne Ferguson and developed with the help of Rachel Senechal.
StoryWalk® projects have been installed in all 50 states and even internationally.
The Coldwater project was made possible with the support of the Kiwanis Club of Coldwater, Kiwanis Childrens Fund, Branch County Great Start, and Apex Clean Energy.
