The Noyes Children’s Library Foundation presents the 90th anniversary edition of The Little Engine That Could by Watty Piper, with new illustrations by Dan Santat, as the eighth free Noyes StoryWalk®. Families are invited to read the book on posted signs as they stroll through Reinhardt Park (10400 Armory Ave., Kensington, MD). The Little Engine That Could Noyes StoryWalk® will run from Sept. 10 to Oct. 10, 2021.

Piper’s classic tale of persistence is fitting for these pandemic times, and the train theme continues to delight people of all ages. During the first weekend of the Noyes StoryWalk®, visitors can also check out the popular Kensington Train Show, which features model trains and more. The Train Show, less than a block from Reinhardt Park, will be open for visitors on Sept. 11 and 12, 2021, at Kensington Town Hall (3710 Mitchell St., Kensington MD). More info on the train show, including admission prices, is at kensingtontrainshow.com.
