 Visit our StoryWalk® at the Berlin Elementary School after school hours. Read a picture book with your child while getting fresh air and exercise! It can be found on the walking trail next to the playground. Thank you to the BMHS' Community Active Mountaineers for their continued partnership with the library to make this resource available to our community.
