Storytimes at Cerny Park start this week!

Through June, join us Tuesdays at the Cerny Park Pavilion from 10–10:30 am for stories, songs and more. In July, we'll be at Summerlakes Park.

Storytimes are open to the public of all ages. Registration is not needed.

If you haven't been to Summerlakes Park lately, you might want to go and check out the latest feature—StoryWalk®!

The StoryWalk experience is a fun and educational activity where pages from a children’s book are displayed along a path. The library's role in this new adventure with Warrenville Park District is in selecting the books to be featured, which is a natural fit for us because just about everything we do supports literacy.

The first StoryWalk book is "Maria Had a Little Llama" by Angela Dominguez. Every few months the story will change, giving families new reasons to explore the park and enjoy a story at the same time.
