The Waterville Public Library and partners plan to launch a StoryWalk at the North Street Community Connector Trail in Waterville.

Beginning Saturday, Oct. 23, people can read the book “Daniel Finds a Poem” by Micha Archer as they walk along the trail behind the North Street playground and alongside the Messalonskee Stream.

StoryWalk promotes reading, movement, relationships, outside time, and exploration.

The StoryWalk starts at the trailhead across the street from Quarry Road in Waterville. New stories will keep coming. While supplies last, copies of current StoryWalk books will be available for pickup for free at the Waterville Public Library, 73 Elm St. ­

Upcoming free fall programs at the StoryWalk are as follows.

• Grand Opening, Saturday, Oct. 23, 1-2 p.m. (Rain date Oct. 24.) Guided tours led by staff of the Children’s Discovery Museum, Waterville Creates, and Waterville Public Library.
