If walking is more your speed, the American Independence Museum (AIM) in Exeter invites visitors to walk along the boardwalk by Exeter River in Robert H. Stewart Waterfront Park for Storywalk. Part of a nationwide movement and literacy boosting project, Storywalk places an illustrated children’s book, taken apart and displayed page by page, along the boardwalk.
“We select books that share the story of the 18th century and the American Revolution,” said Sarah Jaworski, program manager. “Our goal is to teach civics and inspire civic engagement.”
In July and August, the selected book is “Free for You and Me: What Our First Amendment Means.” “The book is wonderful in teaching children about the five liberties protected by the First Amendment,” added Jaworski.
Robert H. Stewart Waterfront Park is located on the point of the Exeter River in downtown Exeter. Storywalk takes place through October.
