Storybook Trail opens in Brookville park Micah Karr
A Storybook Trail that helps teach children about the importance of reading, a healthy lifestyle and connecting with nature is open at Sycamore State Park in Brookville.
Ohio first lady Fran DeWine and Ohio Department of Natural Resources Director Mary Mertz attended a Monday morning ribbon-cutting ceremony at the park. The ODNR partnered with the Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library and Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library to provide story content for the trails.
“There is nothing better than fresh air and a good book, and Ohio’s Storybook Trails offer both,” DeWine said in a statement. “A focus on early literacy can make a world of difference in a child’s life, and the books featured on these trails were handpicked by the Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library for their easy-to-understand, positive narratives.”
