Story Stroll is on a Roll


New story "How to Catch a Snowman" is on the way!

The Statesville Story Stroll is on a roll and switching over to a winter-themed story.

As part of a collaboration between the Iredell County Partnership for Young Children and Downtown Statesville, pages of a children’s story book, How to Catch a Snowman by Adam Wallace and Andy Ellerton, will be placed in the windows of participating Downtown Statesville business storefronts.

Statesville Story Stroll’s third book will be on display January 14th – February 28th, 2022.

This story is perfect for the wintertime as it whisks children away on a journey through a winter wonderland with running, skating, and bouncing through trap after trap to catch their very own snowman!

“The Statesville Story Stroll creates an opportunity for residents to spend time outdoors and enjoy quality time with their loved ones, while providing a free activity that encourages residents to shop and eat local.” said Peyton Barrows, Literacy Program Coordinator. “The feedback surrounding our previous stories has been so positive and we are excited to continue with a story fitting for Winter.”

When families complete the Story Stroll, they are encouraged to head to the Iredell County Partnership for Young Children’s office for a free book and snowman themed Take and Make activity.
