StoryWalk®

Our Fall 2024 StoryWalk title is We’re Going on a Leaf Hunt by Steve Metzger. Visit the StoryWalk to enjoy the story, as well as discussion questions and activities along the way.

Mauston’s StoryWalk is a series of 16 panels. Panel number one starts behind the Hatch Public Library in Riverside Park. Walkers, joggers, families, strollers, bikers, all follow the sidewalk from panel to panel, reading a page from a book, and ending with panel sixteen at Murphy Park, about a one-mile walk in all. The StoryWalk encourages outdoor activity, literacy and the use of Mauston’s north side Riverwalk. The panels are made to be changed and our library installs a new book in the StoryWalk seasonally.

This project was funded with help from the Friends of the Hatch Public Library, Kwik Trip Kares, and the Kohler Foundation. The StoryWalk® concept was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, VT and was developed with the help of Rachel Senechal, Kellogg-Hubbard Library.
