Make the most of the beautiful weather ahead by taking a stroll around Phillips Gardens.
Our current StoryWalk picture book is LITTLE KOALA LOST by Blaze Kwaymullina and Jess Racklyeft.
This cute counting book tells the story of a little koala lost in the bush, trying to find a home. Along the way he meets two marvellous magpies, three tricky turtles and many other characters!
Starting at the front of the Library building on Nolan street, follow your way around the building and through the gardens, reading the story as you wander along - one page at a time!
Visit the library anytime during opening hours to grab a free Little Koala Lost colouring + fact sheet.
This great initiative was made possible thanks to funding from Healthy Loddon Campaspe
The StoryWalk is available at all times and can be read at your own pace.

We thoroughly enjoyed hosting an author talk with Aussie true crime + mystery fiction author Vikki Petraitis last week.
Whether you came to hear about her journey with the Antigone Pollard series or her many years of intense research and ongoing connections related to her vast and varied true crime novels, we know you left inspired!
One patron passed library staff on the way out and the only feedback she was capable of was “wow”.
Vikki’s stories in person and on paper are impressive.
If you’ve not yet read a Vikki Petraitis novel, please give her a try.
Thank you Vikki, you’re welcome back at Maryborough Library anytime! Vikki Petraitis
