What is a StoryWalk®?

A StoryWalk® is a disassembled children’s book featured on different panels around a path or trail. The Delaware County District Library StoryWalk® trails promote reading and physical activity together in one interactive, family-friendly activity.

Where can I find a StoryWalk®?

You can find a DCDL StoryWalk® at Preservation Parks of Delaware County, Ohio. This summer and fall, you can find the book trail at McCammon Creek Park, in conjunction with the opening of the completed Bicentennial Barn. The featured book will be The Flag We Love by Pam Muñoz Ryan.

While you’re discovering the joy of reading, feel free to share your experience with us on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. You can tag us on all three social media sites using @delawarelibrary.

Delaware Library StoryWalk is a DPHD Creating Healthy Communities Mini-Grant Recipient!

In 2022, the Delaware County District Library was awarded $4,500 by the Delaware Public Health District thanks to the Creating Healthy Communities Mini-Grant program. The Library used these funds to create a semi-permanent interactive StoryWalk reading trail in partnership with Preservation Parks of Delaware County. We are incredibly grateful to our friends at the Delaware Public Health District for this award!
