ELANCO Library, 11 Chestnut Drive, New Holland, has announced its new StoryWalk, "Goodbye Winter, Hello Spring" by Kenard Pak.

StoryWalks are designed to encourage both reading books and taking a walk, with a view to promoting literacy, parental involvement, physical activity, and positive community relationships. People of all ages are encouraged to read a children's picture book while walking along a short path, sometimes with prompts to discuss a question or do an activity at each post.

The local StoryWalk is a joint venture between ELANCO Library and Garden Spot Village. Garden Spot Village installed the posts and the first book, and ELANCO Library will select and install a new book approximately every three months.

People are welcome to walk the path and read the book at any time. The book's pages are displayed on the black stands in front of the library and on the Garden Spot Village campus.
