Hi all,

Walden Pond Press has put together a great activity kit that aligns nicely with our summer program . You’ll recognize the characters in the kit Zengo and O’Malley, created by Jarrett Krosoczka, as they are also featured on our Every Hero Has A Story posters for the Children’s program this summer. The kit may be especially useful for community partnership programs.

The handbook is online, and the activities can be printed out from these links:

Please feel free to share these resources with your librarians!

Thanks,
Sarah
