Bookwalk

Bookwalk header image that reads, "Celebrate your love of reading with our Bookwalk!" brought to you by the city of Des Moines and Des Moines Public Library


Celebrate your love of reading this summer with our Bookwalk! We have teamed with Des Moines Parks and Recreation to bring books where you're spending your time outside. You don't have to sit down to enjoy a good book; read along while you enjoy a different book each month at one of these parks! 

Thanks for checking out the Bookwalk this year. We can't wait to do it again next summer!
