Good Night Wissahickon Valley Park is a children’s book sure to delight pre-schoolers and their parents. Printed in bright colors on high-quality board, this beautifully illustrated picture book takes children on a hike through Philadelphia’s Wissahickon Valley Park. A family of four begins their visit in the morning at the north end of the park and stops at several beloved landmarks as they make their way south. By the end of the book, night is falling as the family says, “Good Night Wissahickon.” This book is sure to become a favorite bedtime story!

For over 90 years, Friends of the Wissahickon (FOW) has protected and preserved Philadelphia’s Wissahickon Valley Park. This 1,800 acre urban wilderness has over 50 miles of trails that wind through a wooded gorge formed by the Wissahickon Creek, which provides drinking water to one in three Philadelphians. FOW and its volunteers make the Wissahickon cleaner and more enjoyable, and maintain its wild beauty and delicate ecosystem. Proceeds from the sale of Good Night Wissahickon Valley Park will help support the protection of this public resource for current and future generations.
