Coconino County Parks And Recreation Unveils New “Storybook Path” At Flagstaff’s Sawmill Park

Coconino County Parks and Recreation and The Literacy Center has unveiled the Storybook Path at Sawmill County Park in Flagstaff. The path features the book “Marisol McDonald Doesn’t Match” by local author Monica Brown. The book’s pages are displayed on pedestals at intervals along the path for visitors of all ages to read and enjoy in both English and Spanish. Visitors also have the option to listen to the audio book in both languages by scanning a QR code on their smartphone. Storybook paths, also called storybook trails, have been growing in popularity across the country, and are often the result of a partnership between local parks and recreation agencies and libraries or non-profits, just like Coconino County Parks and Recreation’s partnership with The Literacy Center. Sawmill Park is located at 703 East Sawmill Road in Flagstaff.
