April Book in the Woods
Noisy Frog Sing-Along by John Himmelman
It can be noisy in the woods. Join in the chorus while listening for the “meep, meep” of spring peepers or other frogs.
Come for a half-mile walk and read a story as you go. Pages of Noisy Frog Sing-Along by John Himmelman are mounted along the trail for you to enjoy. A perfect family nature adventure – get your kids out into the woods.
