Over in the Forest – Come and Take a Peek
Written by Marianne
Berkes and illustrated by Jill Dubin.
Come and participate in this self Guided StoryWalk for PreK kids
with adults! This story follows the rhythm and rhyme scheme of “Over in the
Meadow” as mothers teach their babies life skills. Follow the tracks of ten
woodland animals but . . . uh-oh . . . watch out for the skunk!
About the Trail: This StoryWalk® takes
place on the Crystal Springs Trail at Greenwood Park (across from Stone Zoo).
Trail starts from the Parking Lot behind the granite wall. The trail is an easy
walk. Trail can accommodate jogging strollers. Each day, anytime between
10am and 5pm, parents and children are invited to enjoy a Story Book Walk in
the Fells.
The Massachusetts Department of Conservation and
Recreation (DCR), Mass in Motion, the North Suburban Child and
Family Resource Network and Friends of Middlesex Fells would like to
acknowledge and thank The StoryWalk® Project created by Anne Ferguson of
Montpelier, VT and developed in collaboration with the Vermont Bicycle
& Pedestrian Coalition and the Kellogg‐Hubbard Library for
their work and inspiration.
