In April of 1955, Storybook Land first opened, delighting children of all ages!
John and Esther Fricano Sr. founded and operated the park since its beginning. Even after her husband’s passing in 2009, Esther Fricano continued to be active in its operations until her passing in 2015. The park is now managed by Jessica Panetta and several other family members.
2024 marks Storybook Land’s 69th year.
