StoryWalks are fun, educational activities that place pages from children’s storybooks along local trails.
StoryWalk was created as a way for people of all ages to combine physical activity in a local, natural area with a story combining a love of two things: storytelling and walking.
The StoryWalk® Project was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, VT and developed in collaboration with the Kellogg Hubbard Library.

Enniskillen Conservation Area, Turtle Trail (7274 Holt Rd., Hampton)
Enjoy Acorn Was a Little Wild by Jen Arena and illustrated by Jessica Gibson while exploring the Turtle Trail at CLOCA's Enniskillen Conservation Area!
Acorn is a wild little thing with a passion for adventure. The first of his generation to jump off the tree, he gets a thrill out of everything life brings, from tumbling down a hill to feeling the rain pound on his shell. Nothing can keep Acorn down – not pesky squirrels or ending up in unexpected places. But even wild little acorns have to grow up sometime – and that may be the most exciting adventure of all!
