Read to a Dog In-Person
Read out loud to a quiet and friendly trained therapy dog and their adult volunteer during this fun program that's proven to boost children's reading skills. The patient attention these dogs offer helps beginning, struggling, or reluctant readers gain confidence and improve their reading skills. Readers can bring their own books from home or select from options offered by library staff.
Sign up for a 15-minute session with a licensed, trained therapy dog. Program geared towards grades K-3. Registration is required.
