							While the 
							weather this weekend may be “iffy,” if you have a 
							chance to take a nice walk, why not read a book with 
							the child in your life as you do? 
							The Lincoln 
							Public Library in partnership with the Logan County 
							Board has a “storywalk” in Latham Park in Lincoln. 
							Just recently the storybook in the walk has been 
							switched from a winter themed story to something 
							more fitting for spring.
							 
							
							 
							Walk and read 
							“Make Way for Butterfly’ by starting at the 
							northwest corner of the park then progressing to the 
							band stand in the middle of the park. Read the 
							second half of the book by walking from the 
							bandstand to the northeast corner of the park.
