The second chapter in a unique form of downtown discovery that aims to get kids out is turning the page.

A Story-Window Walk is planned as a socially distanced way to give families something fun to do May 7-15.

The event, which saw its first success celebrating Literacy Week in January, is based on a popular book, with local businesses displaying pages on their storefronts.
