The StoryWalk® begins at the playground and continues counter-clockwise on the path around the park. Millie Fleur's Poison Garden will be available to read in September and October. 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.
