The Reading Trail at Pierson-Mallett Park features multiple installations with pages from a children’s book, along with activities for families to go along with each page. The 0.2-mile circular trail has been updated to feature “Never Fear, Sparky Is Here,” written and illustrated by first-fifth grade students at Natchitoches Magnet School.
A tremendous amount of time and effort went into this book. Students learned a great deal about the publishing process while improving their vocabulary and writing skills. Take advantage the cooler fall weather with a stroll in the park on 701 East 5th St. and enjoy the NPL Reading Trail.

The Natchitoches Parish Library serves the public and community through its competent and friendly staff by providing services and programs aimed at meeting the informational, recreational and educational needs of patrons.
