TALES –?

Join Door County Librarian Beth Lokken as she reads the weekly tale, The Busy Tree?written by Jennifer Ward and illustrated by Lisa Falkenstern.

Spectacular illustrations rendered in oil paint, and a rhyming text that describes a tree’s activities from its roots to its branches, introduce young readers to the amazing activities that go on in a tree. Acorns nibbled by chipmunks, ants scurrying across a trunk, a spider spinning a web, leaves “breathing out air for all to breathe in”—everything adds up to a “busy tree” for all to “come and see.” (And for those who can’t make the story time, the pages of this book will be posted on our Trail Tales storybook walk which starts at our West Trailhead.)?
