Story Explorers: Animal Trail
As part of our Story Explorers exhibition, drop in to your local library across Leeds and help us find eight cunning creatures who have hidden amongst the shelves!
Hunt them down and complete the animal explorer activity sheet for a chance to win a brilliant prize bundle.
You can play your way around our Story Explorers family exhibition at Leeds Central Library from 19 February to 30 May. Story Explorers is co-produced by the British Library and Leeds Libraries.
With special thanks to students at Elliott Hudson College for co-creating this trail and to Mahria Sajal for their animal illustrations.
Available in all Community Hubs & Libraries, Sat 14th February – Sat 30th May, during opening hours.
