Summer Reading Gnomes
The Fellowship of the Gnomes have arrived for the summer at Goodnow, and they’re looking for their next Summer Reading adventure!
Check out one of the gnomes from our Library of Things and help the Fellowship find their next great adventure! They enjoy wandering around gardens, taking long walks on the beach or even curling up with a good book. Bring them along with you on your summer adventures (at home or far away) and share your travel gnome photos with us!
Need a hint: Think of the Travelocity gnome commercials from the early 2000s!
Sticking around Sudbury for the summer? The leader of the Fellowship, Gnomedalf, has been delayed on his journey and we need your help to find him! Hunt around your favorite Sudbury stops to find Gnomedalf. The first to find Gnomedalf and send us his photo wins the weekly challenge!
