Tales on the Trail

Tales on the Trail features Barbara Reid

New for spring, Tales on the Trails at Island Lake CVC features Barbara Reid's book "Watch It Grow: Backyard Life Cycles" until the end of May.

Barbara Reid is a picture book author and illustrator whose award winning artwork is created with plasticine. She is the Honorary Chair of Family Literacy Day, celebrated every year on January 27th. This year we "learned to be green together" and celebrate nature, so it is very fitting that Barbara's book is featured outdoors in one of the most beautiful pockets of nature in our community!
