Our Paws to Read program is a great opportunity for children to practice reading. Reading to a dog helps children develop reading skills in a relaxed environment because dogs don’t correct or judge. During the summer “Paws to Read” happens every Tuesday at noon (right after Science Time) in the Children’s Library.
