“Night has fallen and Mom and Dad need to get their little one in the tub. To make it more fun, Mom brings a magical adventure out at sea to life, where the faucet is a waterfall, a rubber ducky is a sea creature, and the splashing water is a raging sea! In their ocean journey, Mom and Dad manage to get their little one clean just in time to dock for bedtime.”

Middleton Public Library and Downtown Middleton Business Association are pleased to announce a new StoryWalk®. Join us in Downtown Middleton April 1st – June 1st, 2025, for the 14th edition of our outdoor, interactive storytelling experience, featuring Off to See the Sea written by Nikki Grimes and illustrated by Elizabeth Zunon.
