Story Trail Walk: Mice Skating

Read a family friendly book while walking through the woods. Follow the illustrated signs along the trail as they tell a tale that connects you to your natural surroundings. The free 1 mile story trail starts from the Oak Point Farm parking lot kiosk and can be completed at your own pace and on your own time. The current story trail features the read aloud book “Mice Skating”, written by Annie Silverstro and illustrated by Teagan White.

For most field mice, winter means burrowing down and snuggling in. But Lucy the mouse loves snow crunching under her paws and wearing a fluffy wool hat. And most of all, Lucy loves to skate, and she’s just ACHING to show off her new skill with her friends. But the other mice just don’t understand–and after a disastrous indoor snowball fight, it looks as if they never will. Can Lucy find a way to make the other mice come out and “mice skate” too? With intricately detailed illustrations as cozy as a fireplace, this funny punny warmhearted love song to winter–and to one brave, bold, and generous mouse–will have kids bundling up for some cold-weather fun of their own.
