StoryWalk® is back!
For our second annual Storywalk®, we are leaning into our summer of Smokey Bear. This year's book is the Smokey Bear Story, written by the US Forest Service with illustrations by Joe Kulka.
Why the summer of Smokey? This year, Smokey Bear celebrates his 80th birthday. At the Red Lodge Carnegie Library, you can pick up a Reading/Activity Challenge as well as a Flat Smokey bookmark to take with you on reading and real-life adventures. On August 9 (his actual birthday), we will have a party at the library to celebrate.
The StoryWalk® is located at Field School Park, on Villard Avenue between 9th and 10th Streets (AKA where you find the tennis/pickleball courts and seesaw playground, across from the Boys & Girls Club, Beartooth Children's Center, and skate park).

The StoryWalk® Project was created by Anne Ferguson and developed in collaboration with the Kellogg-Hubbard Library in Montpelier Vermont. Storywalk® is a registered service mark owned by the Kellogg-Hubbard Library. Sponsored by Keep Kids Reading Town Pump Chartible Foundation grant.

Logistics: Storytime is free, no registration is required. The library will provide blankets to sit on, but be sure to bring appropriate layers/sun hat and water, and wear sunscreen. Some weeks we will engage in messy or wet play time, so dress accordingly!

Magic Between The Pages – An Adventure In Reading
Kyle Groves, a veteran performer will take the audience on adventure in reading exploring topics such as The History of The Traveling Medicine Show. Where in the World Can We Go? A look at Geography. You will even get to learn how to do a magic trick, maybe! And of course, no adventure would be complete without stepping right into a fairy tale. Guests will learn to use their imaginations as they explore all the adventures that lie withing the walls of the library and some important lessons along the way. The importance of reading daily, visiting your library often and of course taking care of the treasures we know as books!
Through the use of a ton of audience participation, lively music, clean comedy, and state-of-the-art magic you are sure to have a magical adventure this summer.
Groves will have a small magic shop available after the program with items available for purchase to start your own adventure in the world of magic.
