Paws to Read

Kids in grades K-5 can join us to practice their reading skills with a gentle, furry friend! Learning to read, especially out loud, can be scary. A friendly face, particularly one with a wagging tail, can help ease reading jitters and build confidence. The registered therapy dog will listen calmly and quietly, creating a safe space for children to practice reading skills without fear or judgment.

Registration is not required. Each child will be have a chance to read a book of their own choice. Bring your own favorite book or pick one from the library shelves.
