The Library announces the NEW “Story Stroll” has been placed on the front lawn and on the fence along Main Street — just in time for Winter in the Village. The most recent “Stroll” is The Gingerbread Man, illustrated by Karen Schmidt.
Long a favorite of our youngest readers, this folk tale brings back memories of holidays and gingerbread cookies and the delights of childhood. Ms. Mary Ellen urges everyone to catch him if you can! The Gingerbread Man‘s visit will come to an end on December 14.
