Story Walk Winners

Jun. 07, 2023

Congratulations to the Story Twins, Loa and Robin who won last month’s Story Walk contest! A brand new Story Walk, brought to you by the Standard Municipal Library, in partnership with the Marigold Library System, is up along Memory Lane. Experience the fun and read along to Stella Partheniou Grasso’s, Five Busy Beavers from June 8 - 28. Join five little beavers and their playful friends in this countdown to fun! “Five busy beavers building up a dam, closing up the river where the salmon swam. Gnawing down trees and ferrying the logs. Slapping on the mud that they gathered from the bog. Along came a muskrat who wanted to play, and one little beaver swam away.” A catchy rhyme counts down from five until there is only one hardworking beaver left. The others disappeared one by one, called away to play by their animal friends —a muskrat, a heron, a frog and a turtle. When the fifth tired beaver finally heads back to the lodge he finds a big surprise! The bouncy story is rounded out with a facts page at the back, along with information about each animal featured in the book. Find out, in this story that celebrates community, teamwork and caring about the world we live in. Enjoy the book, snap a photo, and send it with a comment, to astmlibrary@marigold.ab.ca, or send it to the library Face Book page and be entered to win a Chapters gift card. This is an all ages, all welcome, no membership required contest.
