This Week in White Plains
StoryWalk at Bryant-Mamaroneck Park features a new story: Because by Mo Willems. Because is a powerful symphony of chance, discovery, persistence, and magic in this moving tale of a young girl's journey to center stage.
The StoryWalk, a partnership between the City of White Plains Recreation and Parks Department and the White Plains Public Library, combines a children's story with a popular walking route. The StoryWalk is a great way to inspire parents, teachers, and caregivers to take young children on a short stroll and introduce them to a new book at the same time.
This month’s StoryWalk will run through Friday August 23rd, 2019.
