Bring your little explorers to the Kellogg Bird Sanctuary for a fun interactive experience called Storybook Walk. Each month we display pages from a new book for visitors to read as they travel along our accessible ¾ mile Paved Path. This interactive outdoor experience allows families to enjoy reading and learning together in nature.

• Book Title for November: Lights Out: A Movement to help Migrating birds,
    Written by Jessica Stremer and Illustrated by Bonnie Pang
• Book Summary: Based on the real-life Lights Out movement, this inspirational picture
    book shows how even the smallest of actions, like flipping a switch, can make a big
    difference in helping migrating birds. When the seasons change and it’s time for a
    flock of sparrows to move on, a map made of stars guides their way. But when they
    reach the city, light pollution masks the map and confuses the birds. One sparrow
    becomes separated from the flock. A girl rescues the lost sparrow and decides to
    take action so this doesn’t happen again.
