Author Brendan Wenzel will be reading A Stone Sat Still at the Mill Valley Library. Brendan Wenzel is a New York Times bestselling author and illustrator and a recipient of a Caldecott Honor. He is a proud collaborator with many groups working to protect and conserve wild places and creatures. His book, A Stone Sat Still, is currently featured in the StoryWalk at Bothin Marsh located along the Mill Valley-Sausalito Multiuse Path.
A StoryWalk is a way for children of all ages and their families to explore the park and have a reading adventure at the same time. Like the stone in A Stone Sat Still, Bothin Marsh is many things. As readers learn more about the stone, there are also prompts to look, listen, and interact with Bothin Marsh — getting to know both more intimately as each face a changing home.
The StoryWalk at Bothin Marsh is about 1/2-mile-long and takes about ten minutes to walk without stopping. It starts on the Mill Valley-Sausalito Multiuse Path near Almonte Blvd and ends at the bridge across Coyote Creek. The StoryWalk will be installed from September through December 2019.
This event will begin at the Mill Valley Library, Children’s Room, 375 Throckmorton Ave, Mill Valley, CA 94941. RSVPs are not required, but enouraged.
