SUDBURY, MA — A series of interactive, outdoor story-walks will take place this summer at elementary schools in Sudbury, part of a collaboration between the Goodnow Library and PlaySudbury.

The first story-walk will be on display at the Josiah Haynes Elementary School playground starting Wednesday featuring the book "Ricky, The Rock Who Couldn’t Roll." The walk is also a celebration of the school's new playground

"A StoryWalk® is an interactive way for readers of all ages to enjoy a story and walk at the same time. Laminated pages from a children’s picture book are displayed on special posts along a popular sidewalk. Each page in the book directs families to the next page in the adventure," a Goodnow news release said.
