SUMMARY:Story Trail: Noticing
DESCRIPTION: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 “Noticing\,” written by Kobi Yamada and illustrated by Elise Hurst. \nThis is a story about noticing the little things\, the grand big things\, the imaginary\, and sometimes\, hidden things. It is about embracing what’s possible. And that the incredible is everywhere\, and in everything–waiting to be known\, discovered\, recognized.\nThis beautiful tale by New York Times best-selling author Kobi Yamada and illustrator Elise Hurst encourages readers of all ages to slow down and look at the world with their hearts–to use their imagination to expand their vision. A companion to the beloved children’s book Trying\, Noticing follows a young girl and an accomplished painter as they learn to observe the beauty and magic in each day. It’s a story that will encourage you to pay attention\, to make new discoveries\, and to explore the unknown. And it’s also an invitation to look within\, to your own hopes and dreams\, and perhaps to discover even more.
