“Me & Mama” Storywalk
All Month Long in April
“Me & Mama” Storywalk at the Linwood Crump Shiloh Community Center in Asheville with Asheville Parks & Recreation. A StoryWalk® is a fun, educational activity that displays pages of an illustrated children’s book along a walking route. Conceived as a way to inspire young children to go outside for physical activity and to learn, the trails help build kids’ interest in reading while encouraging healthy activity for both them and adults.
This months selection is by award-winning author and illustrator Cozi A. Cabrera. Mama’s love is brighter than the sun, even on the rainiest of days. There is gentle charm and delight in this book narrated by a little girl enjoying and observing the ordinary details of spending the day with her mama. Each of Cabrera’s illustrated pages are stand-alone beauties, soaked with color and detail as well as abstraction. Some show the differences between the sizes and colors of their toothbrushes, drinking cups, rain boots, and breakfast bowls.
Parents, grandparents, and caregivers looking for a unique outdoor wellness activity to enjoy with children in their lives can visit Asheville Parks & Recreation’s StoryWalk® trails at parks throughout the year.
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.Easter Egg Hunt
