What is the Storybook Trail?
The Storybook Trail is a creative way for the community to enjoy a family-friendly, accessible trail, while reading an adventure at the same time!
Pages of a children’s book are put on signs and placed along the trail for you to stroll along and read the story, step-by-step and page-by-page. The Library will change the stories with the seasons!
Where is it located?
The Storybook Trail is located at ProHealth Care Park in New Berlin at 2950 S. Sunnyslope Rd.
What story is up now?
We're welcoming spring with the story First Notes of Spring by Jessica Kulekjian and art by Jennifer Bower.
Juniper can't wait to audition for the First Notes of Spring, the orchestra that melts away winter and wakes up spring with its melodies. With her strong sticks, thumpity toadstool, and rowdy rhythms, she plays with all her might. BOOMEY-BOOM-BOOM!
But Mr. Moose says there's no room in the band for her loud percussion skills. Juniper is heartbroken, until she discovers other tappers, clappers, and noisemakers in the woods. As they parade through the forest playing music together, they learn that maybe their song can wake spring too.
