The Library's new StoryWalk title is now on display at the French Art Colony.
Our title for September is When the Sky Glows written by Nell Cross Beckerman and illustrated by David Litchfield.
What makes the sky glow all over the world?
The sun's rising and setting, lightning storms, rainbows, solar eclipses, full moons, volcanic eruptions, mating fireflies, and more make the sky glow.
A few lines of text per page offer a description of the many natural events that make the sky glow, and a sidebar that includes facts to let the reader know the science behind each phenomena.
Bright, vivid, and colorful illustrations serve to highlight each event.

StoryWalk is a way for children and adults to enjoy both the great outdoors and great children's books. Follow the pages of the story as you walk from frame to frame along the path. StoryWalk promotes literacy, physical activity, and parent/caregiver involvement.
The StoryWalk Project was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, VT and developed in collaboration with the Kellogg Hubbard Library. StoryWalk is a registered service mark owned by Ms. Ferguson.
